I Am With Kaiser, They Are Pushing The Generic Form Of Revlimid.. Anybody Taking Generic Form Is My Question
A MyMyelomaTeam Member asked a question 💭

Kaiser is now only offering the generic form of revlimid.. The diarrhea just being on revl is way too much to handle sometimes. Kaiser is saying the generic form is the same, the side effects are the same, how do I know that. Plus , I Have been very lucky not to have paid very much for Revlimid, But the generic form I have to pay $50 for.. Does not make any sense.. I would rather stay on revlimid not the generic form

Thank you for that information.. I've talked to the manager of specialty pharmacy geyser, This month it is revlimid, next month I believe it's generic.. I couldn't keep up on all the information she was giving me but now I have to pay for the revlimid $100 a month, generic 50 a month. Something about laws had changed some time ago.. In California we get no help to cover our expenses for these drugs..

We have no choice, we are being provided with the generic. We have seen no difference except in the packaging

Extremely simple and healthy for you

Try 400mg to 600mg magnesium citrate daily. It should help immediately

To update you on the constant diarrhea issues. I use Colestipol. It’s a game changer. I take one each day, you can take up to 2. Start out easy and see how your body adjusts. Wishing you the best!

Not sure that the generics are available in all dosage sizes. Revlimid is available at 2mg, 5mg, 10mg, 15mg, 25mg. Generic may be 10mg and 25mg only (or something more limited).
