The decisions you may face, the aids that walk through them, the warnings on record, the first sixty days and the questions to ask.
One section per setting: the options named, what each is for, the trials behind them, the recorded trade-offs and the questions to ask.
Answer a few questions from a report and read the guideline statement that applies, quoted word for word with its source. Educational aids to prepare for an appointment, not advice.
Fainting, near-fainting, or an irregular or racing heartbeat; several kinase inhibitors prolong the QT interval and the labels require ECG and electrolyte monitoring.
Bleeding that will not stop, black or bloody stools, or unexplained bruising when platelets are expected to be low.
Persistent headache with extreme tiredness, nausea, dizziness on standing or low blood pressure. Vomiting, severe weakness or collapse is adrenal crisis.
A swollen painful calf, or sudden breathlessness with chest pain; venous and arterial thromboembolism is a boxed warning and blood-thinning prophylaxis is recommended.
Fever, cough or breathlessness, rapid weight gain or swelling, bone pain, low blood pressure or reduced urine; the labels say to start steroids and monitor at the first suspicion, and the syndrome has been fatal.
Breathing very fast; confused, slurred speech or not making sense; blue, pale or blotchy skin; a very high or very low temperature, feeling hot or cold to the touch, or shivery; a rash that does not fade when pressed: the NHS says call 999 or go to A&E.
