Can you have Chemotherapy withdrawals?
Any withdrawal symptoms a chemotherapy patient may experience after finishing treatment are probably due to withdrawal from medications used to treat the side effects of chemo, such as lorazepam, marinol, and decadron, and not withdrawal from Chemo.

About Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy or Chemo is a cancer treatment which uses chemicals to fight and kill cancer cells. It comes in different forms and can be taken intravenously or orally in a pill form depending on the type and dose needed. Chemo therapy is often invasive and causes serious side effects. It sets out to kill cancer cells but also kills good cells along the way. It cannot determine the good cells from the bad. It must be given in doses because one big dose can actually be fatal.
