Chemotherapy-induced diarrhea

Supplements studied for chemotherapy-induced diarrhea.

Overview

Vitamin A has one very small pediatric chemotherapy trial for diarrhea and related mouth symptoms. In that study, oral vitamin A did not prevent diarrhea or reduce mouth pain during chemotherapy compared with usual care.

Evidence is too limited to assess whether vitamin A might help other age groups, cancer types, or treatment regimens. No other supplements are indexed for chemotherapy-induced diarrhea here, so broader conclusions cannot be drawn from this page alone. See the evidence review below for trial specifics.
