dc.description.abstract | Supportive care is a multidisciplinary medical field centered around the prevention and treatment of complications and enhancing the quality of life for patients with severe or chronic disease and their families. Supportive care aims to provide appropriate pain and symptom management, to support families and enhance relationships by relieving and sharing their load, and to comprehend the advantages and disadvantages of possible care strategy and assess them in the light of the patient's priorities and values. Pharmacists can lead successfully in supportive care services through ensuring the safe compounding, preparation, and delivery of chemotherapy, by leading educational programs, by boosting and encouraging patients to adhere to chemotherapy and supportive therapy protocols, and by closely evaluating and assessing the prescribed drug to reduce drug-related problems. This chapter describes the comprehensive minutiae of supportive care for chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting in addition to summarizing alternative supportive care for alopecia, neutropenia, gastrointestinal toxicity, etc. and emphasizes the significant role of clinical pharmacists in providing this care. © 2021 Nova Science Publishers, Inc.
