Leukovorin Calcium, Action, American Cancer Society:"Leucovorin calcium can do two things. First, it helps drugs such as 5-fluorouracil work better than the 5-fluorouracil can alone (potentiates). This makes the 5-fluorouracil kill cancer cells more effectively. Second, it can rescue normal cells from the action of methotrexate. This allows cells lining the mouth and gastrointestinal tract, and the cells in the bone marrow to be less affected by the methotrexate. It is an antidote when used this way, and MUST be taken exactly as directed. Otherwise, the body will have severe side effects from the methotrexate."
http://www.cancer.org/eprise/main/docroot/CDG/content/CDG_leucovorin_calcium?internal=1
******************************************************
Leukovorin Calcium, Description, Associated Hospital Service:"Leucovorin calcium counteracts the toxic effects of folic acide antagonists such as methotrexate (MTX) and can potentiate the chemotherapeutic effects of fluoropyrimidines like 5-flourouracil (5-FU) used to treat advanced colorectal, head and neck, squamous cell, gastric, hepatic and breast carcinomas."
http://www.ahsmedicare.com/medical_review_appeals/provider/LMRP/Rescinded/p9628.shtml
******************************************************
Leukovorin Calcium, How does this medication work, MedBroadcast.com:"Leucovorin is a medication that acts the same way in the body as folic acid. Leucovorin is used to reduce the folic-acid-lowering side effects of methotrexate because it is not affected by methotrexate in the same way as folic acid is. It is also used to treat a condition known as megaloblastic anemia, which is an anemia that can be caused by sprue (a condition resulting from reduced absorption of nutrients from the stomach into the bloodstream) and that can occur during pregnancy and infancy.
Leucovorin is also used in combination with fluorouracil to treat cancer of the colon."
http://drugs.medbroadcast.com/ASP/DrugInfo.asp?BrandNameID=1429
******************************************************
Leukovorin Calcium, About your treatment, MEDLINEplus:"Leucovorin is a vitamin derivative. When used in combination with fluorouracil, it enhances the ability of the chemotherapy to slow or stop the growth of cancer cells in your body. In diseases where the amount of folate is low, it can replace the body's supply of the vitamin. Leucovorin also can prevent or treat the toxicities associated with a group of drugs known as folate antagonists. The length of treatment depends on the types of drugs you are taking, how well your body responds to them, and the type of disease you have."
http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/druginfo/medmaster/a682336.html
******************************************************
Leukovorin Calcium(Citrovorum factor, Folinic Acid), Action/Kinetics, Nurses PDR:"Derivative of folic acid; is a mixture of the diasterioisomers of the 5-formyl derivative of tetrahydrofolic acid. Does not require reduction by dihydrofolate reductase to be active in intracellular metabolism; thus, it is not affected by dihydrofolate inhibitors. Rapidly absorbed following PO administration. Quickly metabolized to 1,5-methyltetrahydrofolate, which is then metabolized by other pathways back to 5,10-methylene-tetrahydrofolate and then converted to 5-methyltetrahydrofolate using the cofactors FADH2 and NADPH. Leucovorin can counteract the therapeutic and toxic effects of methotrexate (acts by inhibiting dihydrofolate reductase) but can enhance the effects of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU). Is rapidly absorbed."
http://www.nursespdr.com/members/database/ndrhtml/leucovorincalcium.html
******************************************************
Leukovorin Calcium, Indications, RXlist:"Leucovorin calcium rescue is indicated after highdose methotrexate therapy in osteosarcoma. Leucovorin is also indicated to diminish the toxicity and counteract the effects of impaired methotrexate elimination and of inadvertent overdosages of folic acid antagonists."
http://www.rxlist.com/cgi/generic2/leucovorin_ids.htm
******************************************************
Leukovorin Calcium, Description, Space Coast Medical Associates:"Leucovorin Calcium or folic acid is a B-vitamin used to decrease the harmful
blood effects of different medications such as methotrxate, Trimetrexate,
and pyrimethamine. Leucovorin Calcium may also be used to treat
some kinds of anemia. Leucovorin Calcium is also given along with
a 5-fluorouracil (a medication for cancer) to treat cancer,
such as cancers of the colon or large intestine."
http://www.spacecoastmedicalassociates.com/chemotherapy/leucovorincalcium.htm
******************************************************
Leukovorin Calcium, Folinic Acid, Warnings and Precautions, Texas Cancer Online:"not stop taking leucovorin without talking to your doctor.
Take this medication exactly as directed. Do not take any more, less or take it more often than prescribed by your physician.
You should not plan to have children while receiving chemotherapy or for a specified period of time after treatments. Discuss the risks of pregnancy or conception before and after chemotherapy with your physician. Pregnant women or women who are breast-feeding should tell their doctors before taking this drug. Use a reliable method of birth control to prevent pregnancy. This drug may harm the fetus."

Nurses' Station:"The idea for the Nurses' Station Catalog was conceived in 1989. After searching the marketplace in response to customer inquiries, it became obvious that there were no catalogs of this type serving the nursing profession. To be sure, there were several catalogs offering nurse's uniforms and a smattering of professional items. But there weren't any catalogs at the time offering a range of gifts, clothing, professional items, name badges, shoes and scrubs for nurses. It took two years of hard work to gather samples and put a together a catalog of the most unique and high-quality items for nurses."
