@mariam58 I’ll be interested in what they say. When I went through chemo, they put me on loratidine (Claritin) once daily for a week each time to help with the pain and inflammation. I still had to take an anti inflammatory with it for several days. Later I read an article out of Sweden that did a study (collecting info on record over 10 years of usage) on the use of loratidine and dexloratidine (prescription strength) on breast cancer reoccurrence and their results were positive. Asked my oncologist if I should consider it and he was not that enthused - wanted to wait for further info. Have also read articles on long term side effects of these types of antihistamines which can really muddy the picture. So as I said, will be interested in your oncologist input.
