Cancer treatment places physical, emotional, and financial burdens on patients and their families. Oral cancer therapy provides some benefits to patients; however, the cost associated with oral therapy is overwhelming. Patient outcomes for oral therapy depend on effective patient education about adherence to the prescribed regimen, management of treatment-related symptoms, and ongoing follow-up. This course provides nurses, pharmacists, and providers with an evidence-based overview of the barriers to effective medication adherence and strategies for managing patients receiving oral chemotherapy. By providing high-quality and frequent education, clinicians help patients receive the greatest benefits from their therapy.
