Why Chemotherapy?
As chemotherapy works in killing cancer cells and also slows their growth, a thorough examination is done by Dr Ndamase, the types of treatments that are available and applicable for you will be discussed with you by the doctor. This will allow you take an informed decision about what treatment to receive.
Specification and type of medicine used
Here, the oncologist will explain each medication and how it works, which will make you take a well-informed decision on treatment of choice. This treatment uses different kinds of medication that can be given:
