Superviktor, according to the web site below it doesn't matter whether Imbruvica is taken with or without food.

"IMBRUVICA® is an oral, once-a-day treatment for adults with CLL/SLL that gives you the freedom to take with a glass of water, with or without meals, on a schedule that meets your needs. IMBRUVICA® provides the ease of oral dosing—so you can focus more on what really matters."

I've been on Imbruvica since 2015 and take it at the same time each day, which sometimes corresponds to meal time, sometimes not. I haven't noticed any difference in the way my body reacts to it.

Hi Superviktor - I take my three Imbruvica pills right before I climb into bed. Works fine for me. I think the issue is that you need to maintain consistency as to time of day.

First thing in the morning while still in bed because I was always worried I would forget later in the day. So on bedside table with a glass of water.
