Platinol

Platinol is a powerful chemotherapy drug used to treat several types of cancer, such as ovarian cancer, testicular cancer, and bladder cancer. The drug contains an active ingredient called cisplatin, which works to prevent cancer cells from dividing by directly affecting the genetic material within the cell. Platinol is characterized by its ability to reduce tumor size, but it may cause severe side effects such as nausea, vomiting, poor appetite, and kidney problems. Therefore, kidney function must be monitored regularly during treatment. It may also affect hearing, especially in children. Therefore, hearing is checked regularly. The patient needs to drink large amounts of water before and after taking the drug to protect the kidneys from damage. The drug must be used under complete medical supervision, taking into account the general health condition of each patient.
