Re: Neratinib Clinical Trial

Are you allowed to take supplements during this trial? Perhaps a regimine of really good probiotics would help some. I'm not certain of the mechanism of this diarreha, but usually it is caused by an upset of the natural flora of the digestive system.

Re: Neratinib Clinical Trial

becuase I have not been eating well during this I tried to take supplements as well as Ensure. Both caused be to vomit which I never did during chemo! I always thought I was pretty tough but this is literally kicking my butt! I will talk to the nurse Monday and see what she says about using pro bi's. I'm a zookeeper and we have several animals under my care on them. Maybe I should see if they want to share.
