Re: Pre-meds and Navelbine
I refused steroids even on my first treatment of navelbine. I just had my third on thursday, so we are on the same schedule! I did 25mg of benedryl and 12 mg of zofran with my first treatment, 12.5mg benedryl and 12mg zofran with my second and third. Next week I'll forego the benedryl. I have had some queasiness, but less this time than last time. I took 1 8mg zofran yesterday and 1 today. I hope it keeps going well for you!
