Sorry . Missed out what side effect Iam having . It's itching . Anybody experienced this while on weekly taxol . Mounser123

I would ask your oncology team because I believe it may be a sign that your allergic to taxol. Piriton may help. Love Paul xx

Already mentioned it . Iam taking piriton but doesn't do a lot .

Try Benadryl. Available in chemists. X

Or try Zirtek - it's a different anti-histamine and I find it generally works better for me - also available over the counter.xx
