Abstract
Mithramycin (Mithracin(R)) rapidly controlled the hypercalcemia of malignant disease in every patient. This control was temporary, and intermittent administration of the antibiotic was required.Hypercalcemia frequently responds to non-toxic maneuvers such as hydration and moderate doses of corticoids. Until the mechanism of action of Mithramycin in hypercalcemia is better understood, caution should be urged in its prolonged use for this purpose.Entities:
