Relief for Nausea of Chemotherapy

December 31, 2006

To reduce the terrible nausea and vomiting associated with chemotherapy, have patients drink club soda with lemon or lime an hour before mealtime. Instruct them not to substitute tonic water or 7-Up: because of their sweetness, these do not have the same antiemetic effect. — Emily Wing Rogers, PA-C
