Lenalidomide is a type of drug used to treat multiple myeloma and myelodysplastic syndromes, both of which are immune system issues. It works by affecting both immune cells and cancer cells, slowing down their growth. The medicine is available in capsules that come in strengths from 2.5 to 25 milligrams.
The suggested dose is 25 milligrams a day, taken every day from day one to day 21 of each 28-day treatment cycle. Each bottle holds 21 capsules, giving you enough for two weeks of continuous use.
