Abstract:
Among all the adverse reactions of anti-tumor drugs, the incidence of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy elevated gradually in recent years, but no trustworthy treatment by Chinese and Western medicine for it has been found so far. The related clinical and experimental reports published in the latest 10 years were reviewed in this paper.
