Nurses are exposed to a variety of risks while handling cytotoxic drugs. A study was conducted in 6 different hospitals where those drugs are used. We inquired about the nurses information about their possible toxicities and the protection measures used while preparing and giving these drugs. The results showed that 50% of the 43 nurses questioned don't have complete information about these toxicities and nearly 60% of them do not apply any preventive measure for safe handling of the drugs especially the use of disposable gloves, the use of coveralls with long sleeves and the use of protective glasses.
