I Seem To Have A Bacterial Sinus Infection. What Antibiotics Are Generally Safe For Multiple-myeloma Patients? Are There Any Types To Avoid?
A MyMyelomaTeam Member asked a question 💭

Right now the only medication I'm taking for MM is the Darzalex Faspro and acyclovir. I want to make sure my PCP knows all he needs to know when it comes to prescribing an antibiotic for my case. Thank you if anyone can offer some advice.

I ask the doctor if the drug is processed through the kidneys or the liver. Myeloma patients have to be careful to not overwhelm their kidneys.

Can you ask your Oncologist?

I suppose asking my oncologist would be the logical person to ask.

My daughter is a pharmacist at our cancer Center. She gave me that helpful information.
