Unfortunately, certain chemotherapy drugs can cause nausea and vomiting. This might affect the nutrition and calories you are able to consume.
Things You Can Do To Guard Against Nausea and Vomiting:
-- Have smaller amounts of food more often will reduce chances of vomiting
- Avoid fatty or deep-fried foods
- Consider sipping beverages or soups between meals
- Foods or drinks with excess sugar are best avoided
- Sitting up while taking meals and continuing to do so for at least an hour after, might also help
- Avoid foods with strong smells
Luckily, there are many drugs that your doctor can prescribe to prevent, lessen, or relieve the nausea and vomiting associated with chemotherapy. These medications are called anti-nausea drugs or anti-emetics. These are a group of medications that can be used to control nausea and vomiting and can be given in different ways.

Nausea and vomiting are side effects of cancer therapy and affect most patients who have chemotherapy. The dose of the chemo drugs in higher doses can be more likely to cause nausea and vomiting. The patients are provided pre medication and post medication by the doctors to prevent or control the side effects.
