Question 1 of 5
Which of the following medication classifications is considered a cytotoxic chemotherapy agent?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Antimetabolites. Cytotoxic chemotherapy agents are drugs that target and kill rapidly dividing cancer cells. Antimetabolites are a type of chemotherapy agent that interferes with cancer cell growth by disrupting their DNA synthesis or function. Calcium channel blockers (
A), diuretics (
C), and antibiotics (
D) do not directly target cancer cells and are not considered cytotoxic chemotherapy agents. Antimetabolites, on the other hand, specifically inhibit cancer cell proliferation, making them a key class of cytotoxic chemotherapy agents.
