Complementary Medicine in the Treatment of Cancer Patients
CONCLUSION: The inherent positive attribute of complementary medicine is patient empowerment: it enables patients to help themselves in an active way even while undergoing cancer treatment, as well as afterward. To avoid risks to health, patients should be instructed about unsafe methods, asked repeatedly about their use of complementary medicine, and informed specifically about potential interactions between such interventions and their cancer treatment.PMID:34308831 | DOI:10.3238/arztebl.m2021.0277
