Hi JudyI never had the itching on Gleevec that I'm having on Tasigna. I
don't have a rash either, but itch on my headback, arms, all of the time.
It isn't any funbut could be a lot worse. On Gleevec I had itching of my
legs and feet. Isn't it funny how these drugs affect us? I f
This sounds silly, but I have a rash you can't see. It's mainly on my upper
arms but lately I am itchy on my back as well. My onc says it's from Gleevec
(after all these years (7)). I am taking Ranitidine (Zantac) and drinking
Mangosteen Juice as well. The combination of the two seems to help
Hi and thanks,
No, I've been on Gleevec for 4 1/2 years with no rash, but my dosage was
increase about 4 months ago.
I had a first time eye bleed and now the rash.
It could be due to the increase of the Gleevec. I take 6 100 mgs a day.

Hi Greenie,
Mine is on my upper thigh;
I'll see if I can take a picture of it.
I have been eating yogurt and also putting the yogurt on the rash.
It is cool and feels good.
Thanks again,
Jeanie<3

Hi Greenie and thanks,
Mine is getting better already.
It hasn't itched much, but is uncomfortable.
I had just gotten back from a vacation to Ft. Myers, FL to see Edison's
estate, and I wondered if I came in contact with a plant or something. He had
plants from all over the world on his estate
Jeanie I should add that the rash was on my arms, legs, etc. but after
about 3 to 4 weeks it went away. Lucky it's never come back.

Hi all and thanks for all the advice.
I am going to the dr next week, so will see what he has to say.
I have been on Gleevec for 4 1/2 years now and never a rash.
It doesn't seem to be spreading, so will keep an eye on it.
Thanks again and blessings,
Jeanie<3

I'm the queen of the rash. But I'm not on Gleevec. I did have the
Gleevec rash from head to toe for 7 1/2 months and tried everything.
Finally, I got the pound jar of triamcinolone acetonide cream usp,0.1%
from MDAnderson takes the itch out but I didn't get rid of it
completely until I took Methyl
I would think so. Contact your Dr. as soon as possible. Go to the ER
immediately if you have any worsening of symptoms.
In the first aid dept. How about a simple ice pack to reduce inflammation? Also
Benadryl or even better Benadryl Lotion/gel.
