Making a List of Your Medications

In addition to keeping chemotherapy records, it's a good idea to keep track of any other medications you take to treat breast cancer or to ease treatment side effects. For each medication, keep a record of:

• name (both brand name and chemical name)
• what the medication is for
• date prescribed
• dose
• name, address, and phone number of doctor who prescribed the medicine
• directions for taking
• any side effects you experience
