Hi I would welcome any information as to why people were offered iv infusion rather than the tablet version. I have been prescribed the tablets and they sound quite harsh as opposed to one infusion every six months. Any input really appreciated, thanks x

Hi Casput

I think it's more to do with your oncologist than anything else I was never offered tablets ,and I am glad about that as 6 monthly with a few SE sounds better than the daily faff of tablets

I have read on here about people changing to infusions so you should speak to your oncologist about that .

Hi Casput

Like Northerner, I was never offered Tablets either. However, my old mum had the tablets for about 20 years and they were a faff for her. Seems to me that the infusions are easy in comparison.

Wishing you all the best
