Initial side Effects of Sprycel?

Hi TOM!

(Fellow New Jerseyite!!)

 

Approx  9 days in on Sprycel and the only adverse side effects so far is I broke out with a rash on my scalp and the back of my neck.

Just came back from my Oncologist appt- she prescribed Hydro- cortisone cream at 2.5% twice daily.

On a level of 1 to 10, she said my rash is a one!   Not that bad at all.

Also,  she also is changing my time for Sprycel from around 12:30 PM to after 8 PM so any side effects I can sleep thru!

* Not adverse side effects, but I do get very lethargic and sleepy around 6/7 hours after taking the Med. which is so unlike me as I have

never felt the need to just sit in my lounger and fall asleep watching TV around 6PM every day.*

 

Having blood work done this Friday so these numbers will be since taking Sprycel .

Good luck to all!

Chuck
