Well, at most times the chemo is ment to help, but its not 100% sure it kills only the cancer cells. So if your lucky the chemo will only kill the cancer cells, but otherwise if you are unlucky it kills other cells before it gets to the cancer ones wich causes your body a lot of damage. So at my point it depends.
There are different types of chemotherapy treatments that exist. One uses antimetabolites to replace DNA building blocks, while another called corticosteroids to slow down the growth of cancer cells.
Surgery, radiation, and sound, are used to treat cancer.
Chemotherapy is generally defined as a treatment for cancer. There are many different types of cancer and so many different therapies are used. Most chemotherapies are based upon poisons that work more effectively on the cancer cells than on other body cells. Work continues to find substances that are more specific in attacking the cancer and in delivery methods that minimize what is delivered to other body cells in comparison to what reaches the cancer.
Chemotherapy given by intramuscular injection is absorbed into the blood more slowly than IV chemotherapy. Because of this, the effects of IM chemotherapy may last longer than chemotherapy given intravenously.

A vapor cigarette for nicotine is less harmful than cigarettes as it only provides nicotine and not harmful chemicals.
No. All chemotherapy drugs are small molecules. None of them use a virus. There are some experimental cancer treatments that use a virus or part of a virus, but those therapies are called "gene therapy" rather than "chemotherapy".
Chemotherapy is different than localized treatments of cancer because it is cytotoxic, or kills some of the blood cells in the body. In chemotherapy treatment, patients are given medication that travels throughout the body and destroys any cancer cells that are present.
Cancers can be treated by Chemotherapy, Radiation Therapy, Surgery , Angiogenesis Inhibiters Therapy, Biological Therapy, Gene Therapy, and Photodynamic Therapy. I know there are more than 4 there but a few extras can't hurt.

The long-term side effects of chemotherapy are determined by factors such as the body part or parts affected by cancer, the type of chemotherapy given, and the overall health of the patient before chemotherapy. Some long-term effects may include heart problems, decreased lung capacity, fatigue, hormone problems, and joint problems. Cancer can be beaten and the benefit of chemotherapy is far greater than the risks.
