I had all three chemo drugs you listed. Red Devil is nicknamed that as it is blood red, and your urine after each treatment will be red for a day or two. It is also so toxic that there is a maximum lifetime dosage. You'll probably be told to hydrate well to flush it from your system asap. I always took a large water bottle with me to drink during treatments and drank a minimum of 10 glasses of water per day Ask your infusion nurses what to expect and what you need to do or take to prevent or alleviate side effects. I had anti-nausea meds that worked great. I had a lumpectomy, chemo (16 infusions) and radiation. I was stage three and had lymph node involvement. I'm 3 years out and currently taking Letrozole to prevent it returning.

Yes the nurse said to flush twice& the close the lid before I flushed the toilet & I also use Lysol Wipes each time I use the toilet.
