Chemo dosages - urgent help

Hello everyone.

my mum got diagnosed with triple negative breast cancer and had a lumpectomy to remove it.

I am quite confused how chemo doses work? Will too high a dose have an adverse impact- my mum is 70 years old

she has been advised chemo every two weeks and with following dosage:

Adryiamycin 90mg ; Cyclophosphamide 900 mg and Paclitaxel 300 mg.

I am quite worried that these might be too high a dosage? Any advice greatly appreciated
