how is chemotherapy administered? Chemotherapy, a common cancer treatment, is administered through various methods. Intravenous (IV) infusion is a frequent approach, delivering chemotherapy drugs directly into the bloodstream. Oral chemotherapy involves taking medication in pill or liquid form. Intramuscular (IM) injections and subcutaneous (SC) injections directly deliver drugs into muscle or fatty tissue. The specific method depends on the type of cancer, the drugs used, and the treatment plan tailored to the individual. Chemotherapy aims to target and destroy cancer cells but may also affect healthy cells, leading to side effects. Patients should discuss the administration method and potential side effects with their healthcare team.
