What is the difference between anti-cancer drugs and chemotherapy? are the complications same in both cases?

16>There are numerous anti cancer drugs that are not considered chemotherapy. Tamoxifen is one example. An anti-hormone type drug like tamoxifen would have less side effects than most chemotherapy drugs but that is not to say there are no side effects, because all drugs potentially have side effects.

And no, the side effects are not the same. A lot of anti-cancer drugs do not cause nausea, or low white blood cell counts, or anemia.
