So, Venetoclax is this prescription stuff that’s prescribed for dealing with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia and that other type of cancer, Acute Myeloid Leukemia. It works by stopping this BCL-2 protein, which is a big deal because it’s what keeps cancer cells from dying off like they’re supposed to. You can get it in different strengths—10 mg, 50 mg, and 100 mg—all in these film-coated tablets.
When you’re dealing with CLL, the doc usually starts you off with a low dose—like 10 mg or 50 mg—and then slowly ramps it up to 400 mg taken every day. You’re supposed to take these with food, and they come in bottles with 120 tablets inside.
