Adriamycin

Adriamycin, also known as doxorubicin, is a chemotherapy medication used to treat various cancers. It works by entering cancer cells and interfering with their ability to grow and multiply, ultimately leading to cell death. Adriamycin is often used for cancers such as breast, bladder, and leukemia. While effective, it can also affect healthy cells, which may cause side effects like hair loss, fatigue, and heart issues. It is usually administered in a controlled medical setting, with healthcare providers closely monitoring for adverse effects to ensure safe and effective treatment.
