Scopolamine patches transdermal

Has anyone had any experience using these fo nausea during and post chemo. Im getting all the pre chemo antiemetics bu still have nausea. Was using compazine and ativan at home. Given this to try but after reading the info ….I dont know. Making me nervous Looks abit scary. Currently i just finished #9 of FLOFORI with Avastin.

Ive tried it , it gives me wicked headaches. I popped on a patch…so far no nausea, but no appetite either. My eyes are wonky. And i feel a bit unsteady. But thats ok, todays a couch day for me. Pump gets removed tomorrow. How are you doing on your new regime?

Scopolamine worked well for me. I put it on just before or at the start of my chemo infusion and it helped a lot. I started having dizziness 4-6 days after my infusion and changing the patch after 3 days, (instead of just taking it off and only using one for the first 3 days like I did originally) made all the difference. No more dizziness!
