Abstract
There are many drug interactions in pediatric oncology—between chemotherapy drugs themselves and chemotherapy drugs with adjuvant therapy. Since drug interaction in pediatric oncology is a subject for a whole book, this chapter is a guideline to understand and to find drug interactions when prescribed, and it does not list the drug interactions. For complete information about drug interactions in pediatric oncology, see the book Drug Therapy and Interactions in Pediatric Oncology: A Pocket Guide (Springer), which is on Reference chapter of this book.
