  • Hi Joyski and thank you for posting

    I am sorry to learn about your situation, this must be a difficult time.

    The best person to discuss this with would be your mum's team at the hospital as they know her situation and know what treatment she is having.

    If she has a nurse specialist (CNS), you could contact them. You may need to leave a message, but they should get back to you. They can check with the pharmacy if the targeted drugs are available in liquid form or get advice about the best way for your mum to be able to swallow them.

    I hope this helps, and I hope your mum's treatment goes well.

    Take care,

    Jemma
