Guest guest Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 I was supposed to have switched to Tasigna by now. Big snafu with getting on the Novartis patient assistance plan. It always take a long time to get started. Anyway, in the meantime they sent me this literature and I about fell off my chair. I just don't know what to do. I don't know HOW big a risk it is. It's scary to see the line-up of serious possible outcomes.

Guest guest Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 Hi , Take a look at www.us.tasigna.com for a list of side effects. There is a heart warning for QT prolongation, and it says to take Tasigna on an empty stomach, rather that with food, like Gleevec. - gale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
