SPECIAL INFORMATION
In one case, a person experienced a hypersensitivity reaction that included hives, facial swelling, cough, and chest tightness due to high-doses of chemotherapy. Once the chemotherapy infusion was discontinued, the patient's symptoms stopped. The patient, in this instance, received a pre-chemotherapy regimen consisting of a corticosteroid and Zyrtec. Once methotrexate was re-started, the patient did not experience chemotherapy-induced anaphylaxis. Preventive treatments including cetirizine allow people to continue with required chemotherapy regimes. Physicians will often prescribe or recommend drugs such as cetirizine to minimize the effects of chemotherapy allergic reactions.
