My experience: after having some troubles with nausea and vomiting, I now take the 600 mg at breakfast, if I eat a boiled egg, I never have problems; I do not know why! All the best for everyone, Rien from Italy (on glivec since april 2003) Sent from my BlackBerry® wireless device

He has had intermittent problems with nausea and vomiting since he started. However, in the past two weeks, he has had 3 instances of vomiting approx an hour after taking Gleevec. He already "sandwiches" his pill with food and lots of water and he takes Compazine about an hour before eating and taking Gleevec. Yesterday, his oncologist suggested Reglan instead of Compazine; however, he vomited again today so Reglan doesn't appear to be effective. Any suggestions from your experience? We are in an excellent support group and CMLHope was suggested by several of its members.
