ICE Chemotherapy

ICE chemotherapy treatment is used for non-Hodgkin lymphoma. These types of cancer patients need short stay in hospital for ICE treatment. Before starting the treatment blood test is necessary. If your tests are normal then you are fine for the intake of chemotherapy drugs. ICE treatment is mostly given through a thin plastic tube. This tube is inserted into a vein near the collarbone and the skin or through a vein in your arm. Before chemotherapy drugs, some anti sickness drugs are given to patient.
