    The patient has breast cancer.  I'm not sure if he's talking about a chemo drug here.  After he says she has metastatic breast cancer, his next line is.  She is now undergoing her s/o Seftin or Septin treatment.  Any ideas.  I thought maybe he was saying Ceftin, but that wouldn't make sense in the setting of cancer.  TIA.
