I have been using Niraparib for 15 months and to date the main side effects are heart palpitations which I take bisoprolol for and fatigue. Has anyone else out there been on this drug for a while and if so how long and what if any side effects do you have? Also, if anyone has had to come off it why and for what reasons? Any feedback gratefully received, Katy 

  • Hi there,

    I wanted to send a reply to your post to give it a little boost, so a few more people should see it. If others have similar experience to share then hopefully they'll see your post and send some replies.

    If you have any concerns or questions about this, do discuss these with your doctor when you can.

    You can also speak to one of our nurses if you'd like to get their thoughts at all - you can reach them on freephone 0808 800 4040 (Monday-Friday, 9-5).

    Wishing you all the best,
