Leave temozolomide in the provided packaging until it is ready to be taken. Whenever possible, you should give temozolomide to yourself and follow the steps below.

If you need a bedpan, be sure your caregiver knows to wear gloves to assist with cleanup and to wash the bedpan with soap and water every day. If you do not have good control of bladder or bowels, use a disposable pad with a plastic back, a diaper, or a sheet to absorb body waste. Wash any skin that has been exposed to body waste or temozolomide with soap and water. Linens or clothing that are soiled with body fluids or body waste should be washed separately from other linens and clothing.
