A friend of mine finished 6 sessions of Taxater Dec 6th. He still has bouts of serious nasuea, which he attributes to the chemo. Anyone have any experience with this?

that's common side effects, usually before chemo infusion patients take 25mg Zofran (ondansetron) and monitors blood during treatment.

Could be another cause. We are all taking so many trugs and treatments it can be difficult to tell what (or combination) is causing what side effect. After treatment with chemo and more recently Pluvicto I have been having sever nausea at times. I think i have determined that this and other side effects were caused by cialis which was prescribed for some reason that I now forget. Stopped the cialis and am now almost nausea free.
