Alternative treatments for Busulfan
At the time, the main treatments were Hydroxycarbamide, followed by
Anagrelide
and Busulfan as a last resort. She was first treated with Hydrox but the side effects were severe and she was then treated with
Anagrelide
but after a period this was changed to Busulfan as her platelets increased.

Anagrelide!
I haven’t gone back onto medication yet but my haematologist says I can consider
anagrelide
rather than hydroxycarbamide. What is anyone’s opinion on this ? I’ve heard there can be horrendous side effects . - Thankyou!

Anagrelide
, lots of food for thought.

Itching on pegasus.
Hi I'm 48 and started peg mid Aug 45mcg whilst reducing hydrea and
anagrelide
. Now on just 4
anagrelide
daily and inject fortnightly. Platelets plummeted from 600 to 132. Main problem is itching, mostly after a shower. Please is there anything to ease this torture?

GI bleeds
Hi, I would like to ask everyone who has taken
Anagrelide
and hydroxy whether these tablets have ever been implicated in stomach, oesophageal, or small intestine bleeding.

I was diagnosed with PV in 2016 and live in North Yorkshire
After a 18 months of weekly to 2 weekly venesections, trying but not having posituve results from
anagrelide
and interferon I am now well controlled on Warfarin and Ruxolitinib ( because of a melanoma in the past I cannot take hydroxyurea).

Viruses on HU, what about Anagrelide?
Some of you mentioned getting infections while on HU (hydroxyurea, hydrea) are people on
Anagrelide
getting more infections than they normally think they would?

Shortness of breath
I started
anagrelide

Results from hematologist
So now he is putting me on
anagrelide
. He still doesn’t want me to take an iron supplement. I read that a high RDW causes anemia. I’m not sure if he is doing the right thing. I’m grateful for any thoughts on this.

Hydroxycarbomide and Neutropenia
It’s quite aggressive and he can’t take
anagrelide
as he has already had a heart attack caused by the ET. His platelet counts are within a good range now (and red is fine) but his Neutrophils are super low and he has quite bad neutropenia due to the medicine.

anagrelide
one pill twice daily.

Has anyone had to give up work due to having MPN ?
My heam has changed me to
anagrelide
, saying hopefully I will tolerate it better than hydroxy, but unfortunately 6 weeks on, I feel worse than ever 😐. I’ve not been able to work for that last couple of months due to the fatigue and feeling very low in my mood.

anagrelide
Wonder if anyone older that 60 has ever had heart problems while on
Anagrelide
. It sounds like a terrible drug but HU was causing so many side effects. Platelets have been normal for 2 yrs. Thanks a lot

Foot ulcers
I cannot begin to explain how debilitating and painful this ulcer was I'm now on
Anagrelide
. This is something I feel should of been picked up sooner as it was 8 weeks before anything was done. Perhaps a word of warning to anyone on Hydroxy.

ET since 2001, now anxious about changes in blood counts
I was diagnosed with ET in 2001 and, with a few ups and downs, it has mostly been stable on Hydroxycarbamide,
Anagrelide
and Aspirin until now. At my last appointment, my haemaglobin had dropped to 96, platelets 109 and WBC in the 20s (but have been stable around that for a year or so).
