The  guide  is  organized  into  the  major  types  of  toxicities,  the  associated  symp-toms, possible offending medications, and the suggested nursing assessments and interventions. Some symptoms (e.g. nausea) may be associated with a num-ber of underlying causes and may be mild, or a symptom of a more serious medical  situation  requiring  urgent  attention.  The  pathophysiology  for  medica-tion-related fatigue and hypersalivation are unclear and these symptoms are not grouped under a specific type of toxicity. Additional information (comments) are provided for each toxicity to highlight relevant clinical information that may assist in  management  of  side  effects.  Medications  more  strongly  associated  with  the  side effect appear in bold text. The appendices include tools nurses can use to more thoroughly assess patient complaints of pain, depression and neuropathy.
