Exjade and liver inflammation

Hello everyone

We were very excited when my husband began Exjade a month ago. He has had 71 Txs and had been infusing desferal for a year. He was enjoying sleeping without his infusion pump and had no obvious side-effects. Unfortunately recent blood tests showed liver enzymes increased by ten times. This means he has to stop the Exjade and some other medications. The MDS specialist Dr returns from holidays next week.

Has anyone had similar results? How long did the inflammation last?

Thank you

Helen
