What should I pay attention to during chemotherapy for gallbladder cancer

At a certain stage of chemotherapy, surgery or radiotherapy should be combined if possible to strengthen local or regional control. At the same time, chemotherapy should be given at a higher dose as much as possible according to the patient's tolerance. For chemotherapy, the number of courses should also be appropriately increased according to the patient's response and efficacy, and complete remission should be achieved as much as possible. It is best to carry out scientific treatment based on actual conditions.

Things to note about chemotherapy: Intervals between treatment courses. Since existing drug toxicity can often continue for several weeks after drug discontinuation, treatment should be repeated every week. It should be repeated every 4 to 6 weeks from the start of chemotherapy, but the next course of treatment must be started only after the drug toxicity disappears.

(4) The patient's general condition deteriorates rapidly, and cachexia occurs.
