bcg

Carolyn,
No, it doesn't matter if a patient skips a week or two. If it isn't for medical reasons, it is probably preferred to just do the treatments straight through.
I had to skip one or two weeks due to reaction to BCG and it did not change anything. My first course of BCG was 6 treatments, then 3 doses @ a clip for maintenance.
Hope this helps.

Hi everyone.
I have a question does it matter if you skip one week of your bcg treatment then go for 3 weeks then skip 2 weeks etc... as long as you do all 8.. My question is it more likly for the cancer to grow back because you are not doing 8 treatment in a row? i have superifical bladder with high grade

thank you
