    Glossary Vincristine

    chemotherapy drug that inhibits cancer cell division

    Vincristine is a chemotherapy drug used to treat various types of cancer, including leukemia and lymphoma. It works by inhibiting the growth of cancer cells by interfering with their ability to divide. However, one of its side effects can be hair loss (alopecia), as it also affects rapidly dividing cells in hair follicles.
