Comprehensive Chemotherapy Toxicity & Supportive Care

Proactive Triple-Antiemetic Care & Neutropenia Prevention

Dr. Neha Gupta leads a dedicated 24/7 Supportive Oncology & Side Effect Management Unit at Spica Healthcare. Employing proactive triple-antiemetic prophylaxis (NK-1 receptor antagonists, 5-HT3 blockers, Dexamethasone, Olanzapine), recombinant Granulocyte Colony-Stimulating Factor (G-CSF) protocols to prevent infection-causing neutropenia, cryotherapy/scalp cooling for hair follicle protection, and photobiomodulation for oral mucositis, chemotherapy side effects are prevented or managed rapidly, ensuring on-time treatment completion without dose reductions.

Triple-Antiemetic Prophylaxis: Prevents acute and delayed nausea in over 90% of highly emetogenic regimens
Febrile Neutropenia Fast-Track: Emergency triage, blood cultures, and broad-spectrum IV antibiotics within 1 hour
Peripheral Neuropathy Protection: Glutamine, alpha-lipoic acid, and cryotherapy to protect nerves
24/7 Dedicated Oncology Helpline: Direct patient access to the oncology clinical team for urgent symptoms
