Hello everyone. My partner is due to start on Capecitabine tablets next week. Has anyone on here have experience with this drug? Many thanks.
Hi - there are quite a few ladies on this treatment in the secondary section and it seems to be tolerated pretty well .Maybe re-post this in the secondary going through treatment section ?
Hello clj
Welcome to the forum where we are all real people going through this .
I’m on my 5th cycle of cape now and feeling very well on them. The main thing is to keep the hands and feet well oiled for dryness and take food with the pills …I forgot once and did feel sicky. I find even a biscuit or actimel drink will do the trick.
We have a very helpful thread on secondary threads. …going through treatment and you will find us there with help and advice.
I was absolutely petrified at taking the pills but feel better than I did on the hormone pills
The dosage is the key. .I take 1600 x 2 a day which is a low dose. …
Best of luck …
