Depended on the type on leukemia, the patient possibly accepted a single medicine or a combination of two or more medicines. People with leukemia possibly accepted chemotherapy in several different methods:
* With the mouth
* With the direct injection into some vena (IV or intravenous)
* Through some "kateter" (a tube lentur that was small) that was placed in some vane big, often in chest the upper part of — Is kateter that remained silent at was useful for patients who needed many intravenous maintenance (IV). Maintenance workers of the health injection medicines inside kateter, compared to directly into some vane. This method avoided the need for many injections, that could cause uncomfortable and injured vane-vane and skin.
* With the injection directly in the liquid cerebra — If a pathology expert found leukemia cells in the liquid that filled up spaces in and around the brain and the spinal cord (spinal cord), the doctor possibly ordered chemotherapy intracellular. The doctor injection medicines directly in the liquid cerebra. This method was used because medicines that were given with the intravenous injection or were consumed through the mouth often did not reach cells on the brain and spinal cord. A network from vane-blood vessels refined blood that went to the brain and spinal cord. The obstacle blood-brain this stopped medicines from the achievement to the brain.
