What should I know about side effects?
- Every person doesn’t get every side effect. Some people get few, if any.
- The severity of side effects varies greatly from person to person. Be sure to talk to your doctor and nurse about which side effects are most likely with your treatment, how long they might last, how bad they might be, and when you should call the doctor’s office about them.
- Although side effects can be unpleasant, they must be measured against the need to fight the cancer.
- Your doctor may give you medicines to prevent some side effects before they happen or to treat certain side effects once they occur.
- Many people have no long-term problems from targeted therapy drugs.
