Adriamycin is the name of the drug
It's a red color which I guess is where big red came from.
My mom did really well with her round of cytoxan/adriamycin. Adriamycin could damage the heart. Like the other chemo drugs it can make you have vomiting/diarrhea, naseau etc....each person is different. They have great drugs out there now which can alleviate/diminish side effects. Hopefully, like my mom she won't need them!!
