Again, more than half of the respondents (58%) suffered from side effects affecting their skin such as itching, sweating and sores. 12% of respondents had not received any information on possible side effects at all! Many stated that they were not adequately informed about the side effects, especially hand/foot syndrome and peripheral neuropathy, of which only a 1/3 of respondents had been spoken to about.
