Bosutinib treatments temporarily stopped

Categories:

Hello all

im currently receiving Bosutinib treatment which has been stopped temporarily due to elevated liver enzymes.  How long can treatment be stopped before you are prescribed an alternative medication due to building a resistance.

 

many thanks

Hi Mick,

Your question is hard to answer.  It really depends on a lot of factors.  If your body is having a hard time with bosutinib, then perhaps a lower dose of it would be the next thing to try?  Have you been taking bosutinib long enough to get any feedback as to how well it's controlling your CML?
