I am a participant in this study. One of the side-effects is an acne-like rash - which I am experiencing. If you are experiencing the same reaction - please let me know what products you are using to alleviate the symptoms. Thanks.

    I am also in the cetuximab study. My skin got so bad my doctor sent me to the dermatologist and she has me on 250 mg. of tetracycline twice daily (which has helped considerably) until I complete the study in December. I use cetaphil cream on my face, along with aquaphor on the rashes under my eyes, upper lip and nose. I also use vitamin E. I use curel lotion on my body.
