Subject: carboplatin vs. carboplatinum

Can I get some of your experiences with this?  The doc clearly says "carboplatinum" for chemotherapy, but this is not in my drug book.  I can only find carboplatin.  When I google carboplatinum, I get some hits, but I don't trust google all that much.  Any help would be appreciated.

Anybody know the definitive answer to this? Doctor is saying carboplatinum but I can never find a good resource that confirms. Only carboplatin. Not familiar with oncology at all. thanks.

Rotablator is a trade name for Boston Scientific Rotablator. It is always spelled with a capital R, never with a small r. Hope this helps.
