Anvirzel, according to medline, is a hot water extract of plant origin that contains the active ingredient oleandrin. I am unsure why oleandrin itself is not being used, because it seems to be the active portion. The preliminary results look promising, both as a chemotherapy and as an adjunct to radiation, but with only small trials it needs more research. If you are considering its use, I assume the cancer must be aggressive and metastatic, and I wish you well. If it is not, please write to me, and I can send you information on cancer stages.
