How Is Chemotherapy Administered to Children?

Chemotherapy can be administered in several ways, including intravenously (IV), orally, intramuscularly (IM), or intrathecally (directly into the cerebrospinal fluid). The method of administration depends on the type of cancer, the specific drug used, and the treatment protocol. Pediatric oncologists tailor the treatment plan to each child’s needs, often involving a combination of drugs to maximize efficacy.
