Managing your medication

It’s very important to take medications related to your cancer and other conditions correctly after your CAR T-cell therapy treatment has finished.

Make a list of all the medications you take – including prescription and over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, and herbal supplements – and share this list with your healthcare team.

Try to take your medications exactly as your healthcare team has told you to, including the time of day and whether you need to take them with or without food. You should also be aware of any possible side effects of each medication.

If you accidentally miss a dose, ask your healthcare team what you should do.
