Cancer chemotherapy. Female patient receiving an intravenous dose of anticancer drugs from a syringe. The drugs are designed to destroy cancer cells. The drugs have a range of side effects, including hair loss, as they target all rapidly dividing cells. Cancer is a disease caused by the uncontrolled replication of abnormal cells, which can invade and destroy healthy tissue. The drugs in use here are cytoxan and adriamycin.
