Summary

This study looks at how cancer patients in palliative care feel about stopping medications that are not for their cancer. Researchers will give patients a brochure and video explaining their medicines and then ask them questions to see if their views change. The goal is to learn if this kind of education helps patients talk with their doctors about reducing unnecessary pills.
