Chemotherapy Regimens

Chemotherapy regimens are treatment plans that use powerful drugs to kill cancer cells or slow their growth. Each regimen usually consists of a combination of medications given in cycles, allowing the body to recover between treatments. The choice of drugs, how often they are administered, and the duration of treatment depend on factors like the type of cancer and the patient’s health. While chemotherapy can effectively target cancer, it may also cause side effects, such as fatigue or nausea, due to its impact on healthy cells. Regular monitoring helps tailor the regimen for optimal results.
