Hi ladies, I have a weird question and without going into too much detail at this point, I am looking for information on avastin dosages. Those of you that use it, what dose and how often do you have it?
Thanks for you help,
kathleen:)

    Avastin
    I have been on Avastin for 6 months--no other chemo. One cycle is 4 weeks--once a week for 3 weeks and off week 4. Don't know the dosage but infusion time is 30 minutes. The bag is small. I'll try to remember to check the exact size when I go this week. So far I've had success with it. Hopefully other women will benefit from it as well.
    Blessings to you!
