Gleevec Information:

Gleevec (generic name: Imatinib) is a drug which is prescribed for the treatment of a type of blood cancer called Philadelphia chromosome positive chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). It is also used to treat certain tumors of the stomach and digestive system. Gleevec works by interfering with the growth of some cancer cells. It belongs to the group of drugs called protein-tyrosine kinase inhibitors. CML is a cancer of the white blood cells whereby too many white blood cells are produced, and patients may experience symptoms including pale skin, tiredness, breathlessness and repeated infections over a short space of time. Chronic leukaemia means that the condition progresses slowly over the course of many years and no immediate treatment is required.

"Imatinib is a generic drug used to treat certain cancers. It is manufactured by licensed generic manufacturers. This product DOES NOT originate from Novartis and IS NOT authorized by Novartis, the owner and maker of the branded Gleevec prescription pharmaceutical product."

Gleevec Side Effects:

As with any drug, there may be side effects from taking Gleevec including mild nausea, diarrhea, upset stomach, gas, muscle or joint pain, mild skin rash, headache, dizziness, stuffy nose, sore throat, cough, depression, sleep problems and fatigue. More serious side effects may include fever, severe headache, blistering or peeling skin, chills, body aches, severe nausea or stomach pain, black or bloody stools, coughing blood, pale skin, easy bruising or bleeding, unusual weakness, swelling or rapid weight gain, urinating more or less than usual and sudden severe headaches including pain behind the eyes.

Gleevec Directions:

You should follow the instructions of the doctor who prescribed it you, and there will also be dosage and information on the pack. Gleevec comes in tablet form and should be taken with food.
