Re: ? about Tykerb Duration

Hi, I am NED (only for 7 months) and I am taking three pills a day of tykerb. I also only take it about 75% of the time. My onc wasn't thrilled when I told him that , but the side effects were getting to me, so I found if I take a break for a few days, I feel better.

I think we need to do what is best for us. What if you take a smaller dose and don't tell them?

I am also on Herceptin. What about adding in Herceptin and reducing tykerb?

I take the tykerb right before bed on an empty stomach.
