Guest guest Posted June 20, 2010 Report Share Posted June 20, 2010 G'day , I've been on Tasigna for almost 2 years and commenced on 400mg twice a day after a slow lead in (400mg daily x 1 week, then 400mg second daily in the evening for a week) due to Glivec side effects. I was PCRU in 3 months and have been ever since. In March I dropped back to 600mg a day (400mg in the am and 200mg in the pm), which is the recognized standard dose now. Tasigna is a walk in the park and no fatigue, puffy eyes or weight gain like with Glivec, although it can cause insomnia. Good luck! Regards, From: [mailto: ] On Behalf Of mtadros9@...

Guest guest Posted June 20, 2010 Report Share Posted June 20, 2010 Hi Dee – I’ve always had a weight problem, so for me, it was extremely depressing putting on 13kg on Glivec. I have lost 12kg and of course feel so much better and feel like exercising etc. as Sharon says everyone is different as to the side effects they get and certainly for me my GI problems have increased on Tasigna while on Glivec it calmed it down, while others have had rashes, nausea and headaches. At the end of the day, Tasigna was and still is a breath of fresh air with little issues compared to what I suffered with Glivec. The main con with Tasigna is the fasting twice a day, it can be a real pain, especially when you are entertaining, but on the pro side, you don’t have to stuff yourself with food like I had to with Glivec so that I didn’t get the nausea, vomiting and severe headaches. The biggest plus is being able to live “normallyâ€.
