Nausea represents one of the various short-term effects of Radiotherapy (used in the treatment of Cancer).— Radiotherapy frequently causes damage to the normal cells, which is evident in the form of adverse reactions. [...] After radiotherapy, acute adverse reactions like nausea, vomiting, skin reaction, mucocitis, and fatigue occur. Among the chronic long-term effects, xerostomia, tastelessness, edema, and damage to other organs may occur. [...] Rasayana-avaleha counteracts the various adverse effects of Radiotherapy and Chemotherapy, in particular as under: Tulasi, which has vishanashana-prabhava, and probably destroys the toxic substances released by cell injury when administered with radiotherapy and chemotherapy. The radio-protective effect of the extract of Tulasi leaves has also been proved by pharmacological study.
