We report two cases of an allergic reaction to HCO-60, which is used as an emulsifien for Multamin and enocitabine. A 55-year-old woman with M 4 Eo developed a high fever, urticaria and erythema after induction chemotherapy. After stopping the administration of Multamin, her fever and eruptions subsided. A 51-year-old woman with L 2 developed erythema and hypotension 30 minutes after the third administration of Multamin. When the patient was given enocitabine, she developed anaphylactic shock. During chemotherapy in patients with leukemia, it is important to distinguish the allergic reaction against Multamin-containing HCO-60 from infection and allergies to other drugs.
