Herceptin and Heart Damage

Herceptin drug labeling information warns of the risk of suffering Herceptin and heart damage. The heart damage warnings were not added until after reports of serious and deadly effects were suffered in Herceptin patients. The link between Herceptin and heart damage include the development of ventricular dysfunction and congestive heart failure.

The Herceptin and heart damage effects were found to occur on a much higher basis with patients using Herceptin in conjunction with anthracyclines and cyclophosphamides. In addition, Herceptin and heart damage risks include hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylaxis, infusion reactions, and pulmonary events that can be fatal. The Herceptin and heart damage risks should not be taken lightly. Although the use of Herceptin was not to cure cancer but to help regulate cell growth, the risks involved with Herceptin and heart damage are deadly and require full consideration.
