Missed a Dose

If you missed any dose of medicine, take it as soon as you remember. If it is time for your next dose, then skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dose schedule. Do not take a double dose of medicine to compensate for the missed one.

Overdose can cause severe and delayed suppression of blood cells, vomiting, abdominal pain, breathing problems, or other life-threatening effects. If you think you have taken too much of this medicine, contact your doctor immediately or visit the nearest hospital.

How does this medicine work?

Lomustine damages genetic material in abnormal cells, which can slow their growth.

Interactions

Interactions with other medicines

Some medicines can increase blood-count suppression or change lomustine effects. Tell your oncology team about all medicines, supplements and herbal products you use. In particular, mention other chemotherapy, medicines that suppress bone marrow, and medicines that affect the liver.

Interactions with food items
