How to Manage Side Effects?

Nurses play a key role in managing the side effects of adjuvant medications. Strategies include:
- Patient Education: Inform patients about potential side effects and what to watch for.
- Symptom Management: Provide interventions for managing side effects (e.g., hydration for dry mouth, dietary changes for weight gain).
- Dose Adjustment: Work with the healthcare team to adjust doses if necessary.
- Alternative Therapies: Consider non-pharmacological interventions like physical therapy or psychological support.
