Hi Judy!
There are about 3 pages worth of questions and answers in regards to Amifostine dating back a decade or so if you go to the Search feature here at the top of the page. I looked into amifostine, has another name too, about 10 years ago, and deemed for myself it wasn’t for me, as it has many side effects. It’s given intravenously or orally. I forget which was better over the other. My cancer center had did studies with it, but I think it was stopped, before my time.
You can still ask about and research it as the dosage could have changed it.
Good luck
