Chemotherapy Administration

Chemotherapy involves using powerful drugs to target and destroy cancer cells, which grow rapidly and irregularly. The treatment can be given through veins, injections, or oral medications, often in cycles to allow the body time to recover. While effective against cancer, chemotherapy can also affect healthy cells, leading to side effects like fatigue, hair loss, or nausea. A healthcare team carefully plans the type, dosage, and schedule of chemotherapy to maximize its effectiveness and minimize discomfort, tailoring treatment to each patient's specific situation.
