Re: Tykerb Rash...help?
My Tykerb rash was so bad that my onc had me see a dermatologist the same day. She prescribed Prednisone for 10 days and Protopic and Clobex spray (expensive but she had samples) & OTC Aquapfor & Lubriderm Intense Repair lotion. I had to discontinue the Tykerb until it was cleared up & then restarted. Hope this helps someone.
