The major side effects of tarceva are diarrhea and skin rash.
To control loose stool u can take t.imodium 4 mg stat then 2 mg 2 hrly till motion stops.
For breathing distress do a chest x ray.If there is fluid accumulated in lungs then do USG guided pleural tapping.
Otherwise u can take ipravent and asthalin nebulisation.
