I've been taking Jakavi since April 2022. I started with 20mg/day and I'm currently on 40mg/day. I have no side effects.

I’ve been taking Jakifi for two years for Myelofibrosis and GVHD. I have no side effects and it keeps the goonies at bay.

I am fortunate to find this PV problem early. Has anyone been on Besremi?? Sure would like to know about this if so. It is very expensive and my co p is so very high.
