Should you drink more water when taking gefitinib?

You can drink more water in moderation when taking gefitinib tablets.
Gefitinib is a drug that targets EGFR mutations and is indicated for the treatment of locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer that is positive for EGFR mutations and has received prior chemotherapy.
The drug is an oral medication and can be taken on an empty stomach or with food. Patients in advanced stages who have difficulty swallowing can dispense the tablet in half a glass of drinking water; it will dissolve completely in about ten minutes and the patient can drink the liquid directly. Drinking more water helps to promote the metabolism and excretion of the drug, which is beneficial to the body.
You need to be careful not to add Gefitinib tablets into the drink, and you need to clarify the dosage under the guidance of the doctor to avoid overdose. Patients should communicate with the doctor in time if any adverse reaction occurs after using the drug.
