INDUCTION OF REMISSION — The most common remission induction regimen includes cytarabine (cytosine arabinoside, Ara-C, or Cytosar), given continuously for seven days through an intravenous (IV) line.

Margaret, Your strength is showing - good for you. I'm sending all the positive vibs I can your way. I've beaten breast cancer for 17 years - may my strength add to yours and give you hope. If there's anything I can do, please ask.
You'll remember I'm Mary's friend who went with you to the Luminarias at the Botanical Gardens.
Peace and God Bless
