Stomach pains taking Niraparib

[Jingles6]

Hi

I am suffering with stomach pains taking Niraparib anyone else experience this?

I am monitored every month and my CA125 has stayed 8 since finishing Chemo last November. As I was worried it was a symptom the cancer had returned.

Hi Jane I take Olaparib and from time to time get stomach pains which seems to depend on what I eat, seems to be cramp like. If you are concerned give your CNS a call to hopefully put your mind at rest x Best wishes. Kathy x

Hi there. I took Prilosec every morning. It’s something that has to build in your system to work effectively. Hope this helps.

Hello Jingles6

Thank you for your post. I'm sorry to hear you're worried about the stomach pains you are experiencing. You'll see on this Cancer Research web page that they are listed as a common side effect of niraparib: cancerresearchuk.org/about-...

With any side effects it's important to let your medical team know as soon as possible, so they can give you individual advice and help you to manage them. As Kathy has advised, please do give your CNS or other point of contact a call to discuss your worries.

I hope these side effects resolve for you soon.

Take care,

Anna
