Systemic hypersensitivity to fosaprepitant - A report of two cases.

Fosaprepitant is a widely administered antiemetic used mainly for moderately to highly emetogenic chemotherapy. Local injection site reactions are the most common type of infusion reaction reported from fosaprepitant. At our institution, two separate patients have experienced systemic hypersensitivity reactions to their infusions of fosaprepitant. We report a review of the literature and the details of these reactions.
