I can tell you about cisplatin, having just come off dose one of three. First, prepare to be hydrated. One liter before, one with drugs, and one after, and nurse calling to check in/out for three days after. In my case, pharmacist handed me 6-day plan consisting of many little pills, some q4 and most q6. Prevented the nausea (cisplatin is rated as level 5 nausea drug) but put me over the moon, e.g., I cannot remember yesterday at all. Last night skipped the drugs all together and finally feel real again, although tired. That is cisplatin, Evil Cell Killer Extreme! Don't worry about nausea. I only used two levels of drugs, and was offered four. If you don't mind being out of it, you need not vomit. Good Luck!
