Antineoplastics or Anticancer drugs are the drugs that prevent or inhibit the maturation and proliferation of neoplasms.
Antineoplastic agents travel the body and destroy cancer cells. Many of the side effects associated with antineoplastic agents occur because treatment destroys the body's normal cells in addition to cancerous cells.
- Bone marrow depression
- Lymphocytopenia
- GIT Stomatitis
- Diarrhoea
- Nausea and Vomiting
- Alopecia
- Hyperuricaemia
- Hair loss
Antineoplastic drugs / Anticancer Drugs are not only used prominently in different types of cancers but also in conjunction with surgery, radiotherapy and immunotherapy in the combined modality approach for many solid tumors, especially metastatic.
