What flowering perennial is used for treatment of cancer?
Cancer is not to be treated with medicines purchased across the counter.





Kindly click on the link below to learn about different types of cancers.





Each requires different treatment / medicines.

Reply:Vincristine is a cancer treatment derived from the vinca plant.





I hope this is just a homework question or curiosity. I wouldn%26#039;t try making some at home, if that%26#039;s why you%26#039;re mentioning you can get the flower at Home Depot. You can%26#039;t just eat the plant--the active compound has to be isolated and purified (because other compounds in the plant may be harmful). Also, cancer treatments need to be matched very precisely to the type of tumor and its characteristics. Taking the wrong medicine could make it worse, or just waste time while the cancer spreads through the body.
