new member on Gefitinib

would be interested to hear from anyone taking Gefitinib tablets and any side affects they have i am very pleased with them as my treatment for recurring lung cancer and touch wood they  are keeping me well  but i would like any tips on how others deal with their side affects  

  • That's great news nanruth that the Gefitinib treatment is keeping you well. I hope you will chat to others here who have also taken these tablets and that you can share side effect experiences.

    I did a little search for you and found a couple of past threads from some of our members who have been on Gefitinib. [@Pollyalison]‍ is one example and you can read her story here and respond to her if you wish. Another person who posted about Gefitinib a year ago (to the day!) is [@anxious1]‍ and you can find her thread here.

    We also have some information on our website on Gefitinib with details of its side effects here.

    I hope this helps a little and that you can soon talk to others here who have been on the same tablets.

    Best wishes,

    Lucie, Cancer Chat Moderator
