We need to know his exact treatment protocol to help you in any more than a general way.
General items:
Dentist: (dental) Dental trays, Flouride foam, Walmart stuff: room humidifier, Osterizer, Puffs tissues.
MO stuff: Meds: Anti-anxiety, pain, thrush, constipation, just for starters. There are others, like Reglan, antiemetics like Zofran, etc.
I researched, and had, the meds before I needed them so if there was an issue after hours or on a weekend, I didn't need to go to the ER.
I am sure that others will have more suggestions.
Take good notes at the doctor visits.
