Hi All
Is Taxotere just the one drug or a combination like FEC? Just wondering if it will take me less time in the clinic now that I’m switching to Tax tomorrow.

Hi there - Taxotere can either be given as the one drug or in a combination like TAC. I’m on TAC and unfortunately the Taxotere part is the long bit. Good luck tomorrow
When I had tax it was done as an infusion that took one hour - add to that set up time, plus a few minutes of saline at the end to flush everything through, then it took a good hour and a half
Thankyou
So no different to FEC by the sound of it.
Prepare for boredom!

Hi
Just returned from my first dose of Taxotere, completely spaced out!
It took around 1.5 hours as you say, not including the waiting time for me today of 5 HOURS!
I have antibiotice, GCSF and my usual pharmacy cabinet of anti emetics to take so will be able to use myself as my friends babies rattle tomorrow.
