What are the common chemotherapy side effects?

DEPENDS: It all depends on the chemotherapy drug. Each has its own side effect profile and it does not mean that the person who receives it will experience the side effects associated with it. We all hear nausea, vomiting, tiredness and hair loss but again best thing is to talk to your treating oncologist and/or nurse.

Varied...: Different chemotherapies have different side effects. In general, though, some side effects include nausea, hair loss, mucositis, anemia, thrombocytopenia, neutropenia, fever, and neuropathies.
