Treatment of metastatic breast cancer in patients who have previously received at least 2 chemotherapeutic regimens, including an anthracycline and a taxane, in either the adjuvant or metastatic setting.

There is no generally accepted standard of care for management of advanced and heavily pretreated anthracycline- and taxane-refractory metastatic breast cancer. Some clinicians recommend individualizing therapy based on factors such as patient’s disease stage and tumor type, performance status, quality of life, preferences, treatment history (e.g., toxicity), underlying medical conditions, and expected benefits and risks of each option.

Acetaminophen is a pain reliever and fever reducer.

Dextromethorphan is a cough suppressant. It affects the signals in the brain that trigger cough reflex.

Guaifenesin is an expectorant. It helps loosen congestion in your chest and throat, making it easier to cough out through your mouth.

Pseudoephedrine is a decongestant that shrinks blood vessels in the nasal passages. Dilated blood vessels can cause nasal congestion (stuffy nose).
