Abstract
Introduction:. According to published statistics by the World Health Organization in 2011, cancer is the second leading cause of death after cardiovascular diseases throughout the world. The American Cancer Society announced in its latest report that out of every eight women, one is diagnosed with breast cancer. Methods: In this review article, the databases Medline, Cochrane, Science Direct, and Google Scholar were thoroughly searched to identify Nausea and Vomiting Caused by Chemotherapy in Patients with Breast Cancer. In this review, the papers published until early January 2017 that were conducted to study the Nausea and Vomiting Caused by Chemotherapy in Patients with Breast Cancer were selected. Results: Chemotherapy alongside radiotherapy and surgery is one of the oldest and most commonly used methods for treating breast cancer. Chemotherapy is employing anti-neoclast agents attempting to destroy tumor cells by interfering with cellular functions and their reproduction. Discussion and conclusion: Since nausea is a mental symptom, the patient himself is the best person who could provide the health team with precious and precise information about the presence and severity of the symptoms.
