Experiences with

Venetoclax

Just started the venetoclax ramp up. I am taking the venetoclax at night with food but experiencing at lot of nausea with the venetoclax. Has anybody had this nausea and what did you do about it?

When add venetoclax to Ibrutinib in Cll Treatment

compare venetoclax alone with venetoclax with cd20 enhancer

We're not sure if the Gazyva is the cause of the problem with the platelets or if it's the Venetoclax or both. All of my other CBC values are at or near normal and I physically am doing well and feeling fine on the Venetoclax.

Venetoclax reduction in dosage

Hi I noticed in a previous post on venetoclax where someone changed their dosage time from day to night and how they did it. Anyone know how to do this. Thanks

Anyone have Tumor Lysis Syndrome (TLS) after starting on monotherapy Venetoclax (Venclexta) for CLL? What was your ramp up experience?

Nausea without vomiting on venetoclax any suggestions

I was put back on Ibrutinib in December and then had 5 x 2 night stays in hospital as they ramped up my Venetoclax to 400mg. I was then on combined Ibrutinib and Venetoclax in January 2021.

I am taking venetoclax at present and am suffering with muscle cramps, particularly in my back. Does anyone else have this problem? My consultant refuses to acknowledge that this is as a result of the medication but my GP has found it to be the case.

My oncologist said I could potentially go off venetoclax and if (or when) I have a recurrence I could go back on it. The research is sketchy because of the newness of the drug. Any thoughts?

Anyone got dental fragility & chipping on Venetoclax & Ibrutinib?

venetoclax for high risk cll-without enhancing drug

The first-line treatment was obinutuzumab/venetoclax but after a year on this treatment, his disease has turned to a Richter's Transformation (large cell lymphoma).

It looks very likely I will switch from taking Ibrutinib to taking Venetoclax. While Venetoclax is a tablet, if I start it, apparently each week for the first 5 weeks, I will need to spend 48 hours in the hospital. This is to allow the medical staff to monitor my reaction to the Venetoclax.

I've just recently worked my way up to Venetoclax 400mg. I'm curious if anyone had similar side effects: 1. When I inhale, at times I will experience a shortness of breath (of sorts) it's hard to explain.

Hi, I am in the first week of ramp up of Venetoclax. I was hospitalized for 2 days for the first dose. I had Rasburicase IV, but I am not sure if I should be taking Allopurinol daily at home. I should have asked, too stressed. I am at high risk of TLS, but very little effect on large node yet.

Thanks for any suggestions, Dennis, 74, Venetoclax

I would just get Venetoclax alone (no Rituximab) as this is recommended as the third line; whereas 2. if I take Venetoclax-Rituximab as a second line treatment and need to change, I can then go to Ibrutinib. This seems strange ... has anyone else been told this?

As a CLL patient who recently completed Venetoclax monotherapy and stopped because all bloods were in the normal range, would I still be considered immunocompromised?
