Anti-swelling drug may weaken immune system in brain cancer patients

Swelling caused by brain cancer is a serious problem that can lead to serious side effects and even death. While controlling swelling is important, a new study shows that a commonly prescribed anti-swelling drug suppresses the immune system for weeks after dosage, inhibiting the body's ability to fight the cancer.
