Question 1 of 5

Which of the following medication classifications is not considered a cytotoxic chemotherapy agent?

A. Alkylating agents. B. Antitumor antibiotics. C. Opiate antagonists. D. Antimetabolites.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Opiate antagonists. Opiate antagonists are not considered cytotoxic chemotherapy agents because they do not directly target cancer cells. Cytotoxic chemotherapy agents such as alkylating agents, antitumor antibiotics, and antimetabolites work by interfering with the growth and division of cancer cells. Opiate antagonists, on the other hand, are used to manage pain and opioid overdose by blocking the effects of opioids in the body.
Therefore, they are not classified as cytotoxic chemotherapy agents. Alkylating agents, antitumor antibiotics, and antimetabolites are all examples of medications that directly target cancer cells to inhibit their growth and division, making them cytotoxic chemotherapy agents.
