Chemotherapy is the use of anti-cancer drugs to treat cancerous cells.
Chemotherapy reaches all part of the body, not just the cancer cells. The oncologist will recommend a treatment plan for each individual. The oncologist will also determine how long and how often you will have chemotherapy treatments. Chemotherapy may be given in a variety of settings including your home, a hospital outpatient facility, a physician's office or clinic, or in a hospital.
