[Experience with the use of palonosetron (onicit) in patients with solid tumors receiving cytostatic therapy]
Abstract
Nausea and vomiting are among adverse effects of chemotherapy that significantly worsen quality of life of patients. 5-HT3 receptor antagonists have been used in recent decades to prevent and arrest these complications. Palonosetron is the most modern drug in this group. Palonosetron application during highly and moderately emetogenic chemotherapy showed its high effectiveness for nausea and vomiting prevention.
