Abstrakt: | Preview Modem chemotherapy provides meaningful palliation for cancer and even cures some forms. Unfortunately, it causes numerous adverse reactions. Nausea and vomiting are the most feared and debilitating for many patients; in fact, some patients refuse potentially beneficial chemotherapy to avoid these side effects. The authors discuss antiemetic drugs that are often effective in alleviating discomfort, especially when used in combination. |
