Abstract
Infusion of the antitumor necrosis factor-alpha chimeric monoclonal antibody infliximab can be associated with the development of severe infusion reactions (IR) during retreatment. We present the case of two rheumatoid arthritis patients with a history of severe acute IR to infliximab who subsequently underwent successful infusion using a prophylactic treatment with a combination of H1 and H2 receptor blockers, hydrocortisone, and diphenhydramine.
