Free Methotrexate cancer medicines

Methotrexate (popularly known as Rheumatrex and Trexall) scarcity is currently one of the most hotly discussed topics on various cancer forums. Closure of the Ben Venue’s Ohio facility, Methotrexate’s major manufacturer, has led to huge scarcity of this vital medicine. Hospitals are running out of stock and many are claiming stocks that can only service the current patients. Easterndrugs has taken up the cause of lowering this Methotrexate scarcity crisis. Easterndrugs is providing free Methotrexate samples that can be ordered by cancer patients facing shortage of this vital medicine. Patients may just have to bear the handling/shipping cost after providing necessary details to dispatch the medicine at any location that the patients want. This offer runs until April 15, 2012, so readers can share this article or direct needy friends / relatives to www.easterndrugs.com.

Methotrexate has been one of the most important cancer medications for nearly half a century now. Patients suffering from many incurable diseases especially cancer, during 1940′s-50′s, have had significant improvement in their survival chances. This antimetabolite type of medicine has been used against cancers ranging from acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) that usually affects infants to breast cancer; a common cancer affecting more than 13% American women. Other cancers treated with this medicine including Gestational trophoblastic tumors, lung cancer, advanced Non-Hodgkin lymphoma etc. Methotrexate is also quite useful in other ailments such as rheumatoid arthritis and psoriasis.

Young patients are most affected by Methotrexate scarcity, as they are almost solely reliant on it as medication against acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). One of the most common cancers to affect children, it worsens the patient’s condition if treatment is not provided immediately. ALL affects the patient’s bone marrow, with cancerous cells taking over the bone marrow and preventing new, healthy blood cells from being formed. Methotrexate, produced by Bedford Laboratories run Ben Venue, is currently the most important medicine in treating ALL so far. When Ben Venue’s Ohio based facility failed FDA quality tests, they were already floundering in Methotrexate productivity. The closure of this facility in November escalated this crisis to the current situation and has forced the FDA to take drastic steps.

The FDA has now turned to generic providers and allowed import of Methotrexate from India to make up the gap between demand and supply. To face this growing crisis, Easterndrugs is providing Methotrexate free sample for patients. Having provided medicines throughout US, Easterndrugs has the infrastructure in place to provide Methotrexate wherever needed.
