Like other chemotherapy drugs, capmatinib has some potential adverse effects during use. According to the clinical trial and label data, the data are compiled as follows:
This is one of the most common adverse reactions of capmatinib treatment, which may manifest as edema in various parts of the body, especially swelling of the face, limbs and low-hanging parts of the body. The occurrence of peripheral edema may be related to the effect of drugs on the balance of water and salt in the body, which requires patients to pay close attention and timely feedback to the doctor to take corresponding management measures.
Nausea is another common digestive discomfort that may be accompanied by a precursor to retching or vomiting. Nausea caused by capmatinib may affect the patient's appetite and nutrient intake, affecting overall health. Your doctor may recommend strategies such as eating small portions in small portions, avoiding greasy foods, and prescribing anti-nausea medications if necessary.
【Warm Tips】During the treatment with capmatinib, patients should pay close attention to the changes in their physical condition and report any uncomfortable symptoms to the doctor in time.
