My nightmare with efudex

I've been given efudex twice. Each time after 15 days my doctor told me I must stop from using it or I will end up on drip. I had a bad infection on my head which could lead to blood poisoning. They put me on antibiotics for the infection which resulted in a rash all over my hands and arms. I was told was it is atopic dermatitis and I still get from time to time.
