Overview

Dose reduction, lengthening the interval between dose administration, and ultimately drug withdrawal are the most effective strategies. Specific treatments include cooling the extremities during drug administration, vitamin B6, topical and oral corticosteroids, and topical 99% dimethyl sulfoxide.

Medical Therapy

Treatment Has been tried for the treatment of the PPE caused by
Cooling the extremities during drug administration
  • Liposome encapsulated doxorubicin
  • Docetaxel
Pyridoxine (vitamin B6)
  • Liposome-encapsulated doxorubicin
  • Fluorouracil
  • Doxorubicin
  • Docetaxel
  • Capecitabine
  • Etoposide
Potent topical corticosteroids

(The best results have been demonstrated when used in conjunction with cold compresses and emollients)

  • Liposomle-encapsulated doxorubicin
  • Fluorouracil
  • Cisplatin
  • Docetaxel
Oral corticosteroids
  • Liposome-encapsulated doxorubicin
  • Fluorouracil
  • Cytarabine
  • Doxorubicin
  • Bleomycin
  • Methotrexate
  • Vinorelbine
Topical 99% dimethyl sulfoxide: 4 times daily for 14 days Liposome-encapsulated doxorubicin
