Most oncology pts have so many meds they barely remember which ones they're taking when. Generally a spouse, family member or other caretaker organizes the med schedule and keeps track.

Working in the industry, the supplements we get the most questions about and that come up as conmeds for the main treatment is turmeric and biotin. The turmeric is getting popular as an antiinflamatory and biotin has good word of mouth to help prevent hair loss.

Biotin can really throw off lab values and for our infusion treatment patients we need to constantly monitor their labs, so that is really important to ensure they're not taking. Turmeric has some interactions as well, but not as severe as biotin.
