Fluorouracil (5FU) is one of the most popular anti-cancer drug used worldwide
Fluorouracil (5FU) is a highly specialized cancer drug. It has been in use for years and has been subject to many clinical trials. It belongs to a family of cancer drugs called anti-tumor antigens. Anti-tumor antigens are like other normal body cells but they possess a different construction. They stop cancer cells from functioning normally. They prevent the cancer cells from making and repairing cancer DNA. The original indication for the use of fluorouracil was for use in the prevention of tooth decay. Because tooth decay is prevented, the drug is also used for cosmetic reasons. Fluorouracil (5FU) consists of two antigens, fluorouracil A and fluorouracil B. Fluorouracil A contains a synthetic form of vitamin D that mimics the activity of naturally occurring vitamin D in human beings. Fluorouracil B contains the same active ingredients as the prescription medicine lofexidene. In clinical trials with dogs, it was found that both antigens were able to produce a significant increase
