"This is a medicine suggested for my sister, who has only a few weeks to live. Will know tomorrow if the doctor goes through with this. So scary. He did mention about it being taken off the market and now back available. How does one choose?"

"This medicine should be taken off the market. It caused more harm than good. My mother died because of incompetent doctors and Mylotarg. Nothing was changed about the ingredients/composition of this medicine after the FDA approved it to be brought back on the market after being taken off for ten years. It was taken off because it killed more than it saved. Just like it is still doing. The only thing about this medicine that changed when it was brought back in late 2017 was the dosage and how it is administered."
