Pomalyst 3mg

A MyMyelomaTeam Member asked a question 💭
Springfield, PA

Hi Everyone I’ve been taking 2 mg of Pomalyst since the end of March and my igg numbers have come down very slowly but the last 3 months they’ve been fluctuating up and down so I know my Dr is going to increase my Pomalyst to 3 mg does anyone here take 3 mg? I’m just wondering if there was any significant side effects when taking the higher dosage. Hope everyone is having a great holiday weekend.

Hi Merri,
I take 4mg for little over a year and I have not had any problems.

Ron's been on Pomalyst for about a year, after being on Revlimid the previous year. He started with 4 mg; with numbers down and stabilized, the Dr reduced it to 3 mg. Still stable, he's starting next round reduced to 2 in hopes it will further reduce fingers tremors.
