Treatments and Procedures
Chemotherapy is a common cancer treatment, often combined with surgery or radiation
therapy.
Certain drugs are used in this therapy that target and destroy exponentially
multiplying cancer cells.
This can help shrink tumours and prevent cancer from spreading to other parts of the
body.
At CikitsaIndia Cancer Care Programme, our best medical oncologists in Bangalore
use
chemotherapy to treat various cancers, including Breast Cancer, Lung Cancer,
Colorectal Cancer,
Leukaemia, and more.
There are 2 types of chemotherapy: Adjuvant Chemotherapy and Neoadjuvant
Chemotherapy.
• Adjuvant chemotherapy is given after the main treatment, such as surgery, to kill
any cancer
cells that may remain in the body.
• Neoadjuvant chemotherapy is given before primary cancer treatment, such as surgery
or
radiation therapy to help shrink the tumour.
Based on the cancer types and stages, there are various methods to administer
chemotherapy -
orally, intravenously, injected into a muscle, or topically (applied directly to the
skin).
• The patient requires multiple cycles of chemotherapy at certain intervals.
• The patient should be hydrated to negate the side effects of chemotherapy (nausea,
vomiting,
and hair loss) as chemo drugs also target healthy cells in the body.
• The doctor will offer supportive care measures to manage these side effects.
