As a partner, one of the most helpful things you can do is attend medical appointments with your husband. This can help both of you remember important information from discussions with healthcare providers and ensure no questions are overlooked. Your support in helping maintain the treatment plan will be invaluable. Regarding Tecvayli, there are some important side effects to be aware of. The most serious potential side effects include:

• Febrile neutropenia (high fever with low blood cell counts)
• Immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS) which can affect brain function
• Severe infections
• Seizures

It's crucial to stay in close communication with the healthcare team about any side effects your husband experiences. They can provide guidance on managing these effects and may adjust treatment if needed. Remember that staying on track with treatment is vital for the best outcomes. If you encounter any challenges with the treatment plan - whether they're financial, logistical, or related to side effects - don't hesitate to reach out to your husband's healthcare team. They can often provide solutions or connect you with helpful resources.
