Re: Tykerb + Xeloda side effects and how to handle
Rupali
I know the pharmacology of the drugs. The big one with Tykerb is diarrhea. When they were doing clinical tests on Lapatanib (Tykerb) it was hard to do a double blind study as it was quite obvious who was taking the active drug.
Xeloda is a prodrug that forms 5flurouracil in the body and the main side effect seems to be the hand foot syndrome. Im sure others will respond in more detail.
