You don't have to suffer from nausea and vomiting (also called emesis)
as a result of chemotherapy and radiation therapy. Kytril offers you the
confidence to control these distressing side effects of cancer treatments.
And if you are already experiencing emesis, Kytril may help prevent further nausea.
This web site was designed specifically for people undergoing cancer treatment,
their caregivers, and members of their healthcare teams. Suffering from
chemotherapy and radiation-therapy-induced nausea and vomiting should no
longer be part of cancer treatment.
