Introduction Nausea and vomiting are side effects of certain anticancer treatments. They may also be due to the illness itself. Ill health, admission to hospital or regular visits for treatment may cause anxiety. This can also affect how much nausea you feel and how well you cope with it.
People react differently to treatment, such as radiotherapy and chemotherapy.
Some have very few problems. However, if nausea or vomiting does occur, there are medicines and other ways to reduce or prevent these side effects.
