delayed nausea
Delayed nausea refers to a type of nausea that occurs hours or even days after exposure to a triggering factor, such as chemotherapy treatment or certain medications. Unlike immediate nausea, which happens soon after the trigger, delayed nausea can be harder to predict and manage. This can significantly impact a person's comfort and ability to engage in daily activities. Understanding this phenomenon is important for healthcare providers to offer appropriate treatments and support, ensuring patients are better prepared for these delayed symptoms and can cope more effectively.
