After my new round of chemotherapy, I have been given some new pills to help with the side effects. Well, reading the pharmacist's information sheet took me a bit by surprise.
N.G. pill (300mg):
Common Uses: This medicine is an anticonvulsant used to treat seizures associated with epilepsy. It may also be used in adults to treat nerve pain following infection.
With this new pill comes a separate list of side effects I won't go into.
D. pill (8 mg):
Common Uses: This medicine is a corticosteroid used to treat severe allergies, arthritis, asthma, and skin conditions. One side effect of this pill is an increased appetite! Yucky but doable.
Well so far I have not had a seizure, no unknown rashes from a foreign country and I am still able to knit (no arthritis).
