Revlimid

Hi Mseth,
When your mother responded after 3 days with Revlimid she is so sensitive that she probably can try a lower dose for example 5 mg twice a week.

I didn't know that there already are generic drugs for Revlimid - I don't think the patent is 10 years old yet. If they say that it is Lenalidomide we hope that they have managed to make the "real" drug.

When I started to take Thalidomide 2010 I took 50 mg 7 days a week. My WBC decreased and could only tolerate 50 mg 4 days a week. That dose worked almost 3 years.
Kind regards
Birgitta-A
