Common Chemotherapy Side Effects
Chemotherapy drugs are good at killing cancer
cells, but they can damage some healthy cells as well. The damage to normal cells causes side effects.
Common side effects of chemotherapy include Fatigue, Weak Immunity, Infection,
Insomnia, Nausea and Vomiting and / or Pain. You may experience one or
more such side effects when you are on the chemotherapy treatment. Your
doctor may give you many choices to deal with the side effects. Natural
herbal medicine is one of the choices to reduce the chemotherapy side
effects and avoid additional damage to healthy cells. Below, see how
our herbal medicine stacks up against the symptoms you feel and choose
which is right for you.
Fatigue
Fatigue is a common side effect of chemotherapy and is characterized
by a general tiredness or overwhelming lack of energy. It may be
associated with an increased need for rest, an inability to regain
energy with rest, difficulty concentrating, or a disinterest in
events. Chemotherapy-related fatigue is caused by anemia, or a
low white blood cell count. Such fatigue may be acute or chronic.

cancer patients’ healthy cells resulting in the side effects
such as weakened immune system, low white blood cell counts and
fatigue.

Infection
The powerful chemotherapy agent is great at killing cancer cells,
but it is also detrimental to healthy cells. This type of damage
causes most of the common side effects of chemotherapy. Human body
normally keeps producing a certain number of white blood cells,
which are instrumental to the body in fighting infections. Unfortunately,
white blood cells (WBC) are killed along with the cancer cells.
The WBC count decreased too rapidly to be replaced during the chemotherapy
treatment, so patient’s body is at risk for simple infections
that could become very serious.
- Leucozepin® is
designed to boost the immune system and increase the body’s
white blood cells. It greatly helps protect patients from unwanted
infections so that they can be strong in the fight against cancer
and fulfill the chemotherapy treatment on time.

Insomnia
Insomnia is the prolonged and usually abnormal inability to obtain
adequate sleep. Sleep problems can either be difficulty falling
asleep or difficulty staying asleep. Often times, chemotherapy
drugs cause patients to feel tired and sleepy throughout the day.
Therefore, patients on chemotherapy can end up napping or sleeping
during the day and that leads to difficult sleeping at night or
through the night. Sometimes sleep problems exist because of other
medications prescribed to combat side effects of the chemotherapy.
Stress and tension of the cancer and the treatment can also cause
sleep problems.
- Relazovac® is
a formula specifically designed to help cancer patients solve
this problem. It is all natural, non addictive and non drowsy.

Nausea
and vomiting
Nausea and vomiting are frequent side effects of chemotherapy
and radiation therapy. Nausea is feeling queasy or sick to your
stomach, as though you're going to throw up. Vomiting is emptying
your stomach by throwing up.
- Apazin® can
help whether the patients are suffering from nausea and vomiting
or experiencing loss of appetite.
- Many patients find it works best by taking Leucozepin® and Apazin® together.

Pain
Pain may be a side effect of cancer or cancer treatment. If not
adequately managed, pain may have a tremendous effect on quality
of life. Modern medicine can help control moderate to severe pain.
Patients also have other methods of controlling it, including exercise,
acupuncture, massage, and taking natural herbal medicine.
- Eezapein™ is
an all-natural formula designed specifically for the fast pain
relief of mild to moderate pain associated with cancer and chemotherapy
treatment.
