I'm almost sure methotrexate was one of the drugs given. There were mutiple needles being pushed into my IV but I do remember the name methotrexate.
Thank you for your quick response.
Hi. What sort of chemotherapy was given to you? Some chemotherapy drugs may result in pancreatitis, but these are drugs commonly used for treating leukemias, not breast cancer. Examples include asparaginase, cytarabine, and mercaptopurine. The only chemotherapy drug commonly used in breast cancer which has been known to cause pancreatitis is methotrexate. This drug is usually given as part of the chemotherapy regimen called CMF (cyclophosphamide, methotrexate and fluorouracil).
