While anticancer agents can be highly effective, they also come with a range of side effects due to their impact on normal, healthy cells.
Chemotherapy: Common side effects include nausea, hair loss, and immune suppression. Targeted Therapy: May cause fewer side effects than chemotherapy but can still lead to fatigue, skin issues, and high blood pressure. Immunotherapy: Can result in immune-related adverse effects, such as colitis and pneumonitis. Hormone Therapy: Side effects may include hot flashes, mood swings, and bone thinning.
