Chemo Treatment

Chemotherapy, or chemo treatment, is a medical procedure designed to destroy cancerous cells in the body. Administered under the supervision of a doctor in a clinical setting, chemo treatment requires close monitoring to manage any potential side effects and support the patient's recovery. With advanced chemo drugs available today, malignant tumors can be targeted and eliminated more effectively. Universelle Medicaid offers affordable chemo treatment options in India, ensuring clarity and support throughout the process.

Benefits of Chemo Treatment

Before undergoing chemo treatment, it's important to understand the benefits:
  • Slows Tumor Growth: Chemo treatment helps slow down the growth of cancerous tumors, improving survival rates. It is often used to reduce tumor size, making it easier for subsequent surgery.
  • Destroys Hidden Cancer Cells: It targets and kills any cancer cells that might be undetectable, contributing to complete recovery and helping patients regain self-confidence.
  • Alleviates Pain:Chemo can relieve painful symptoms caused by cancer, improving quality of life and boosting strength during recovery.
  • Treats Other Conditions: In addition to cancer, chemo can treat diseases like lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, and bone marrow disorders, by using lower doses to regulate the immune system.

Understanding these benefits can help you make an informed decision to pursue chemo treatment.

Who Needs Chemo Treatment?

Chemotherapy is typically recommended for patients diagnosed with cancer. The exact dosage and treatment plan vary depending on the stage and type of cancer.

How Is Chemo Treatment Administered?

Before starting chemotherapy, doctors may order blood tests to check white blood cell, red blood cell, and platelet counts. The most common method for chemo treatment is an infusion, where the drug is administered directly into the vein.

In some cases, chemo is available in pill form, and your doctor will prescribe the appropriate dosage. Creams or gels are also options, depending on the type of cancer. Depending on the treatment plan, you may need to stay in the hospital for a day or two for the full course.

Success Rate

The success rate of chemotherapy varies depending on individual conditions, but in general, the approximate success rate is over 90%.

Recovery and Post-Treatment Care

After chemo treatment, your doctor will provide instructions to help speed up recovery:
  • Eat fruits and vegetables to detoxify your body.
  • Include lean proteins like fish, nuts, and eggs in your diet.
  • Opt for complex carbohydrates like whole grains and legumes.
  • Get plenty of rest to allow your immune system to rebuild strength.

A balanced diet and rest are key to managing side effects and promoting recovery.

Risks and Complications of Chemo Treatment

Chemotherapy can have side effects, including:

  • Hair loss is a common side effect.
  • Increased risk of infections, as chemo weakens the immune system.
  • Anemia due to a decrease in red blood cell count.

Your doctor will discuss these potential risks with you before beginning treatment. At Universelle Medicaid, our doctors are dedicated to providing care and minimizing complications.
