My Oncologist Just Sent Me An Email- Anyone Experience This?
Our practice has implemented a new policy: after cycle 3 of your treatment, you no longer need to continue premedications. You will no longer need to take Dexamethasone, Benadryl, Pepcid, or Tylenol before your treatments.
Yes I thought the dex is part of the treatment as it helps the other medications work
I no longer take Dexamethasone, Tylenol or Benadryl either. They were discontinued after cycle 4. I was told it could be different for participants based in their numbers and response to medications.. I am happy to be off of them.
Thank you everyone- I was a little shocked too because I’ve had about 19 cycles and have done fine. Thought premeds are part of the treatment plan, like we’ve all been told. I will have to ask more questions when I see them on 23rd for labs/doctor, my next Dara shot will be the 26th. I’ll keep you posted it what I find out.

I think you have no longer to use the medication because the doctor now you’re situation may be they gave you a break .Best of luck to you and stay healthy take care of your health.we here will pray for you ☺️👍
I still take it. But don’t have to wait an hour for it to kick in before getting the injections
