General Description

The chemical {2-[bis(2-chloroethyl)amino]-6-methoxy-2-oxidohexahydrofuro[3,4-d][1,3,2]oxazaphosphol-4-yl}methanol, also known as busulfan, is a medication used in the treatment of chronic myelogenous leukemia. It belongs to the class of alkylating agents and works by inhibiting DNA synthesis and disrupting the duplication of cancer cells. Busulfan is administered orally or intravenously and is often used in combination with other chemotherapy drugs. It is important to use busulfan under the supervision of a healthcare professional, as it can cause severe side effects such as bone marrow suppression, infertility, and an increased risk of secondary cancers. Overall, busulfan is a potent chemotherapeutic agent that plays a crucial role in the management of certain types of cancer.
