Herceptin Injection
Hi There. I have been told Herceptin injection will be available soon. Has anyone had one already. Don't want to jump out of frying pan into fire! :)
Forum Discussion
Hello, it's Lisa from the Policy Team. A new form of Herceptin, called Herceptin SC, has been listed on the PBS for people with HER2-positive breast cancer. As you said, it is administered as an injection which takes about 2 to 5 minutes to deliver. We have developed a Beacon article which provides more information about this new form of Herceptin. You can read the article here. If you would like to know whether Herceptin SC might be suitable for you, it would be best to talk to you medical oncologist.
Warm regards,
Lisa
