Hi does anyone take antihistamine for hayfever whilst on chemo? I’m on perjeta herceptin and docetaxel and have the SE nose drip but my hayfever season is starting too and I would usually be on antihistamine . Have checked drug interactions on line, none listed. If you take them, which ones? Will try to get hold of advice from my unit but not so easy on weekends. Grateful for advice. Pam x
