摘要
Side effects of afatinib are a problem in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, little is known about the occurrence of afatinib-induced hypotension. An 81-year-old man with NSCLC had an epidermal growth factor receptor-positive genotype with the p.L861Q mutation in exon 21. He was administered afatinib (40 mg/day) as anticancer therapy. Hypotension occurred twice after afatinib initiation. He suffered from dizziness and nausea. Blood pressure gradually returned to normal after afatinib cessation. Clinicians should be aware of hypotension in patients with NSCLC after afatinib initiation.
