Frequently Asked Questions
The common problems in patients receiving chemotherapy are fatigue and nausea. Fatigue is a common side effect of chemotherapy and can make it difficult for patients to carry out their normal activities. Nausea is also a common side effect and can make it difficult for patients to eat or drink, leading to dehydration and malnutrition. Consult the best chemotherapy treatment doctors in Kolkata to know more.
There are several main types of chemotherapy, including alkylating agents, antimetabolites, topoisomerase inhibitors, and platinum compounds. The type of chemotherapy a patient receives depends on the type and stage of their cancer, as well as their overall health.
The organ affected by chemotherapy depends on the type and dose of chemotherapy drugs being used. Chemotherapy can affect many different parts of the body, including the bone marrow, where blood cells are produced, as well as the digestive tract, hair follicles, and reproductive system.
After chemotherapy, patients may receive additional treatments such as radiation therapy, immunotherapy, or surgery. The best treatment after chemotherapy will depend on the individual patient's case and should be discussed with their healthcare provider.
In addition to oral and intravenous administration, other methods of receiving chemotherapy include intraperitoneal (into the abdomen), subcutaneous (under the skin), and intrathecal (into the spinal fluid). The method of delivery will depend on the specific type of chemotherapy drug and the patient's individual case.
Chemotherapy can be delivered in several different ways, including orally in pill form, intravenously through an IV, and topically through a cream or lotion. The method of delivery depends on the specific type of chemotherapy drug and the patient's individual case.
