Hi all:
I have hit my fifth anniversary of taking Gleevec. I was taking all my 600mg
at one time during lunch and only had mild nausea. About six months ago I
could not put up with the nausea, so I took the advice of others and spread
the six pills out. I take three pills middle morning with a bagel, and the
remaining three pills at lunch - no problems. My Onc. was OK with this.
