Absolutely revlamide is very expensive more than i could afford without insurance and even with insurance it’s costly that’s why dr’s choose lenalidomide.

My husband is on the generic. I will try to look up the lactose.
My daughter told me the lenalidomide is the same but may have different fillers or dyes.

I’m wondering if the Generic has lactose also? I’m allergic to dairy, so can’t take it.
