Abstract

Lijekovi koji se koriste u liječenju karcinoma dojke imaju raznovrsne načine djelovanja te ne djeluju samo na tumorsko tkivo nego i na ostale dijelove tijela, rezultirajući nuspojavama. Jedne od najčešćih nuspojava uključuju mučninu, povraćanje, bol, proljev, konstipaciju, umor, gubitak kose, anemiju itd. te iste mogu smanjiti kvalitetu života, otežati ili prekinuti liječenje ili ugroziti sam život pacijenta.
Srećom, većina nuspojava može se kupirati odgovarajućim nefarmakološkim mjerama, dodacima prehani i lijekovima, a tu važnu ulogu ima i ljekarnik koji svojim znanjem pravovremeno reagira i predlaže pacijentu odgovarajuću terapiju. Time se poboljšava kvaliteta života pacijenta, omogućava se nastavak liječenja i smanjuju troškovi u zdravstvu.

Abstract (english)

Medicines used in treatment have various modes of action and do not only affect tumor tissue, but also other parts of the body, resulting in side effects. One of the most common are nausea, vomiting, pain, diarrhea, constipation, fatigue, hair loss, anemia etc., which can reduce the quality of life, complicate or interrupt the treatment, and endanger the life of the patient.
Fortunately, most of the side effects can be controlled with appropriate non-pharmacological measures, dietary supplements and medicines, where the pharmacist plays an important role using his knowledge to respond in a timely manner and suggesting the appropriate therapy to the patient. This improves the patient's quality of life, enables the continuation of treatment and reduces healthcare costs.
