I have taken decadron with taxotere which is the same family as taxol. I took it the night before treatment, received it with treatment and took it again on night of treatment. Its purpose is to help prevent fluid build up and it can also aide in the fight against nausea, though the taxanes are not noted for nausea/vomiting issues. You may encounter sleeping challenges, it can give you a bit of a buzz, so you may want something to help you sleep.
Blessings, Elisabeth
