Xeloda Side Effects
Greetings smart friends,
I start Xeloda tomorrow and am looking for advise on how to prevent side effects. First I wonder about nausea - I seem to get it easily and this medicine is taken for 2 weeks. Recently on Navelbine I used Aloxi and it worked for three days and that worked fine. Now (if I get nausea) what do I do and for how long? I got a prescription for Zofran and am going to buy ginger tea. Any thoughts or advise? Anyone usually get nausea and found that the did not have a problem with Xeloda?
I will be combining it with Tykerb. I have been on Tykerb once in combination with Herceptin and did not have much trouble there. So I am mainly concerned about Xeloda.
Thanks in advance for sharing your words of wisdom.
Carolyn
