Doxorubicin has been used as a chemotherapeutic agent for over 30 years. Its cardiac toxicity has been known for over 20 years. In recent years, delayed-onset cardiac toxicity has been described as yet another cardiac complication of doxorubicin and other anthracyclines. The following case is felt to represent such an example.

Cardiac disorders remain one of the most important causes of death in the world. Oxidative stress has been suggested as one of the molecular mechanisms involved in drug-induced cardiac toxicity. Recently, several natural products have been utilized in different studies with the aim to protect the progression of oxidative stress-induced cardiac disorders. There is a large body of evidence that a...
