Can children and teenagers take temodar (temozolomide)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: Temodar (temozolomide) is indicated in adults in certain blood cancers. FDA recommendations often reflect what the drug company submitted during research. In Pediatrics, we often use medication OFF LABEL - meaning it's not listed as approved for children. However, many private research helps us determine if pediatric uses are helpful. Discuss your concerns with your specialist. http://www.drugs.com/pro/temodar.html
