Re: [CML] 200 mg.

[Rob]

400 mg is considered the standard starting dose. Unless the side effects are really extreme they often get better over time. Does her doctor treat other CML patients and have experience in treating CML?   Rob ----- Original Message ----- From: robert goodrich To: cml@yahoogroups.com Sent: Tuesday, June 28, 2005 4:12 PM Subject: [CML] 200 mg. rob, nancy tolerates the lower level of gleevec best, side effects,etc. whenever she has tried to increase to 300 or 400 mg she endures more side effects and her white cell count drops considerably. at 200 mg she has been keeping a white cell count between 4000 and 5000 and feels pretty good. i was just wondering if anyone else was on that low a dosage. rob and nancy __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
