Side Effects
Diarrhea, nausea/vomiting, decreased appetite, weight loss, changes in taste, nosebleeds, dry skin, dizziness, and headache may occur. If any of these effects last or get worse, tell your doctor or pharmacist promptly. Pain or sores in the mouth and throat may occur. To reduce the risk of getting mouth sores when you start everolimus treatment, your doctor may prescribe a mouthwash that contains a corticosteroid medication. Brush your teeth carefully/gently and avoid using mouthwash that contains alcohol, iodine, peroxide, or thyme. Rinse your mouth often with cool water mixed with baking soda or salt. It may also be best to eat soft, moist foods. Temporary hair loss may occur. Normal hair growth should return after treatment has ended. People using this medication may have serious side effects. However, you have been prescribed this drug because your doctor has judged that the benefit to you is greater than the risk of side effects. Careful monitoring by your doctor may decrease your risk.

This medication may cause your cholesterol/triglycerides to increase. You may need to have your cholesterol/triglycerides checked periodically and/or take another medication to control your cholesterol/triglycerides. This medication may lower your ability to fight infections. This may make you more likely to get a serious (rarely fatal) infection or make any infection you have worse. Tell your doctor right away if you have any signs of infection (such as sore throat that doesn't go away, fever, chills, cough). This medication may make side effects from radiation treatment worse.

Everolimus can commonly cause a mild rash that is usually not serious. However, you may not be able to tell it apart from a rare rash that could be a sign of a severe allergic reaction.
