What BCG Is Used For:
Bladder cancer
If a drug has been approved for one use, physicians sometimes elect to use this same drug for other problems if they believe it might be helpful.
How BCG Is Given:
BCG is given by intravesicular infusion. This means it is given directly into the bladder through a urinary catheter. The urinary catheter is inserted through the urethra (the tube which carries urine from the bladder to the outside of the body). The BCG solution is injected into the catheter, which is then clamped. Clamping the catheter allows the medication to remain in the bladder. The patient is encouraged to roll from side to side and to lie on their backs to help the medication reach all areas of the bladder. After a predetermined time (usually about 2 hours) the catheter is unclamped and the fluid is drained. The catheter is then removed.
BCG treatment is given as an outpatient procedure.
The treatments are usually given on a weekly basis for 6 weeks followed by treatments once a month for 6 to 12 months. Your doctor will determine your exact treatment schedule and dose.
The amount of BCG that you will receive depends on many factors, including the manufacturer of the product you receive (there are multiple), your general health or other health problems, and the type of cancer or condition you have. Your doctor will determine your exact dosage and schedule.
