In cancer chemotherapy, adverse effects are inevitable and occasionally fatal. Also, the use of appropriate measures against them can greatly influence the QOL of cancer patients so such measures should be taken rapidly. To do this, an extensive knowledge base containing information on the degrees and time of occurrence of various anticancer drug adverse effects is necessary. In this study, we developed an evidence-based adverse effects manual for doctors. Six months after distributing the manual, we examined its usefulness by administering a questionnaire. More than 80% of the doctors responding said that the manual saved work in deciding on a prescription or examining medical treatments and more than 90% of them thought that the manual aided them in administering treatment. In conclusion, our manual provides doctors with a useful tool that enabled them to rapidly administer appropriate treatment for adverse effects due to cancer chemotherapy.
