Would oral chemotherapy aggrivate stomach ulcers?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possible: Oral chemotherapy can possibly increase the probability of ulcers or other potentially serious abdominal complications such as perforation. You should avoid drinking alcohol & smoking cigarettes. Also avoid aspirin & NSAIDs unless prescribed by your doctor. And always discuss any possible side effects with your treating physician. I wish you well with your health!
