Amyloidosis – Diagnosis & Treatment

Chemotherapy

Chemotherapy is the combination of different drugs and medications to get rid of the abnormal blood cells. This will prevent the buildup of amyloid proteins and alleviate the symptoms. Some drugs used for myeloma could often be an option. Your doctor might recommend the following medications for chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide, bendamustine, as well as melphalan. The exact form of chemotherapy that you get would depend on different factors, such as the affected symptoms, age, and exact intensity of the symptoms. [6]
