Do brain tumors respond to any kind of otc medicine?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not usually: Primary brain tumors do not usually react to otc medications other than tylenol (acetaminophen) for the headaches they can cause. Fortunately, the chemotherapy for these tumors is usually very well tolerated and is a pill that does not require you to come to the hospital.
