Canada pharmacy shares lifestyle disease has taken over people’s lives for the past decade and life longevity is getting shorter and shorter compared when people used to eat freshly grown fruits and vegetables (unlike today’s processed junkies).  And, one of the major health risks of unhealthy diet is colon cancer.  

Generic Xeloda is a cancer medication that interferes with the growth of cancer cells and slows their spread in the body. Xeloda is used to treat breast cancer and colon or rectum cancer that has spread to other parts of the body. 

You should not take Xeloda if you are allergic to capecitabine or fluorouracil (Adrucil),Canada Drug Fights Breast, Colon and Rectum Cancers Articles or if you have severe kidney disease or a metabolic disorder called dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase deficiency. Do not use Xeloda if you are pregnant. It could harm the unborn baby. Use effective birth control while you are taking Xeloda, whether you are a man or a woman. Tell your doctor if a pregnancy occurs during treatment. You should not breastfeed while you are taking Xeloda. 

Before you buy Xeloda and consume it, tell your doctor if you have liver or kidney disease, a history of coronary artery disease, or if you are also taking folic acid contained in many vitamin and mineral supplements, leucovorin (Wellcovorin), phenytoin (Dilantin), or a blood thinner (warfarin, Coumadin). 

Call your doctor at once if you have a serious side effect such as severe vomiting or diarrhea, fever or flu symptoms, pain or redness of your hands or feet, jaundice (yellowing of the skin or eyes), chest pain, sudden numbness or weakness, or fainting. 

Overdose symptoms may include fever, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, blood in your stools, coughing up blood. Avoid using antacids without your doctor's advice. Use only the specific type of antacid your doctor recommends. 

Determining what causes cancer is complex. Many things are known to increase the risk of cancer, including tobacco use, certain infections, radiation, lack of physical activity, poor diet and obesity, and environmental pollutants.[1] These can directly damage genes or combine with existing genetic faults within cells to cause the disease. Approximately five to ten percent of cancers are entirely hereditary. 

Cancer can be detected in a number of ways, including the presence of certain signs and symptoms, screening tests, or medical imaging. Once a possible cancer is detected it is diagnosed by microscopic examination of a tissue sample. Cancer is usually treated with chemotherapy, radiation therapy and surgery. The chances of surviving the disease vary greatly by the type and location of the cancer and the extent of disease at the start of treatment. While cancer can affect people of all ages, and a few types of cancer are more common in children, the risk of developing cancer generally increases with age. In 2007, cancer caused about 13% of all human deaths worldwide (7.9 million). Rates are rising as more people live to an old age and as mass lifestyle changes occur in the developing world. 

When cancer begins it invariably produces no symptoms with signs and symptoms only appearing as the mass continues to grow or ulcerates. The findings that result depends on the type and location of the cancer. Few symptoms are specific, with many of them also frequently occurring in individuals who have other conditions. Cancer is the new "great imitator". Thus it is not uncommon for people diagnosed with cancer to have been treated for other diseases to which it was assumed their symptoms were due.
