I want t know what is that medicine that says ONE LESS and starts with a G

Answer 1

There is no medicine to treat specifically Cervical cancer, but a new vaccine has been invented and that is Gardasil. Gardasil is a vaccine against certain types of the human papillomavirus (HPV), created by researchers Dr. Albert Bennet Jenson and Dr. Shin-je Ghim at the University of Louisville in 2006, following on research done by Professor Ian Frazer of Australia in conjunction with Australian biomedical company, CSL Limited. The vaccine, marketed by Merck & Co. in America, whilst paying royalties to CSL, is designed to prevent infection with HPV types 16, 18, 6, and 11. HPV types 16 and 18 cause about 70% of HPV-related cervical cancer cases. In addition, some types of HPV, particularly type 16, have been found to be associated with oropharyngeal squamous-cell carcinoma, a form of throat cancer. HPV types 6 and 11 cause about 90% of genital wart cases. Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection causes virtually all cases of cervical cancer, the 7th most common cause of death from cancer among women worldwide. -

Answer 2

Gardisil does not treat Cervical Cancer it is a vaccination against the infection HPV virus. Gardisil is not a medication for cervical cancer! It does NOT protect everyone from getting HPV not even against all the strains that cause cervical cancer.
If you use the vaccination to protect against the HPV virus it does not mean that you can shlub off pap exams because you can still get cervical cancer especially if you were sexually active before you got the vaccine.

Answer 3

It is Gardisil but it does not treat cervical cancer. It is a vaccine against a few of the strains that can cause cervical cancer.
