Coping with Side Effects
Each chemotherapy medication has the potential for side effects. You many have none of these side effects or only a few. Before starting chemotherapy the doctor will discuss the possible side effects. We will discuss the many strategies in preventing or reducing these side effects. If you are experiencing side effects and are not sure what to do, please call the Chemotherapy/Infusion Clinic at (408) 972-6560. For more information, note the website links at the bottom of this page.
