Common Hematology-Oncology Drugs Causing Infusion Reactions

This chapter explores infusion reactions associated with common hematology-oncology drugs like taxanes, platinums, and monoclonal antibodies, highlighting hypersensitivity reactions from antibodies like rituximab and platinums like carboplatin. It also delves into desensitization protocols for platinums and the importance of premedications for patients on taxanes to reduce infusion reactions.
