Has anyone experienced any Allergies reaction on ibrance? I'm not sure it's the cause, because I have a lots of allergies, but lately when I take my ibrance..my throat feels like it is swelling, so I have to take an benadryl to interact..anyone else? Today I'm going to skip it just to check it out..

Hi Chico....

That sounds like a potentially serious reaction, as I'm sure you know. I don't have the same, but I am seriously allergic to numerous foods and drugs (including anesthesia and CT contrast dye). There's at least one other post on this site where a member discusses her reaction to Ibrance...Not sure how to direct you there, but it come up on "Related Posts" when I click on yours. This is obvious, but definitely speak with your oncologist/nurse and consider finding an allergist who specialized in drug allergies.

I hope you get the answers you need...

Take care,

Lynn

Letrozole has latex and lactose in it. I learned that from the lovely ladies in this group. I had stomach discomfort when I was on letrozole.

Who knows what else they use as 'fillers'.

Hope you feel.better soon.
