Vincristine is an injectable medication that is used to slow the growth and spread of cancer cells in the body. It is principally used to treat certain bone marrow cancers and blood disorders such as Hodgkin’s disease, non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, and leukemia. It is also used to treat cancers of soft tissues of the body, cancers of the nervous system, and Wilms’ tumor.

Cancer cells have abnormal rates of growth and multiply at rates that are different than normal cells. Vincristine interferes with the ability of cancer cells to multiply and grow, thereby reducing the total number of cells and helping to stop their spread throughout the body.
