Phenargan group of drugs

Detailed Answer:
Hi

Since you have received brachytherapy and had taken lupron for your prostate cancer and now is experiencing chills and sweating I would advise you to take phenargan group of drugs with your doctors advise

Also do a blood test for complete blood count and a blood culture test to see if your blood counts is normal or not and if there is any infection
