How much does chemotherapy cost after colon cancer surgery

Colon cancer is mostly caused by the malignant transformation of colon mucosa under the influence of environmental and other carcinogenic factors. It is a relatively common malignant tumor. The incidence population is mainly concentrated in the middle-aged and elderly people aged 40-60. There are about 8 million new cases in the world each year, accounting for about 15% of all malignant tumors. Many people will ask, how much is the cost of chemotherapy after colon cancer surgery?

The cost of chemotherapy is mainly determined by the drugs used by the patient, the course of treatment, and the local charging standards. Different chemotherapy plans, the prices of chemotherapy drugs, and whether they are imported or domestically produced all cause different chemotherapy costs. Chemotherapy is carried out in cycles, such as 21-day cycles, 28-day cycles, and 14-day cycles. In each cycle, different diseases have different drugs. Even for the same disease, the dosage of drugs for different conditions is different. Therefore, there is no strict standard for the price of chemotherapy.

Generally, domestic chemotherapy drugs are cheaper, about 3,000 yuan per treatment (of course, different plans have different prices), while imported drugs are more expensive, costing more than 10,000 yuan per treatment! Chemotherapy can cause side effects, which can have physical effects on patients. The side effects of chemotherapy vary depending on the patient and the chemotherapy medication, and the side effects are unpredictable. The reaction of toxic and side effects is related to the dosage of the medication. The larger the dosage, the greater the toxic and side effects. However, generally speaking, the most common are the following: vomiting, constipation, oral mucositis, ulcers, erythropenia, thrombocytopenia, granulocytopenia, etc. To relieve the toxic and side effects of chemotherapy, you can prescribe some Xipai capsules to take one week before chemotherapy, and you can continue to take them during or after chemotherapy to reduce the pain of chemotherapy, relieve the side effects of chemotherapy, and improve the patient's immunity. It allows patients to better complete the chemotherapy treatment process.
