Keep monitoring your blood tests
Your doctor will order tests to see if you are responding to your treatment and to check for side effects. That's why it's important to have regular testing and stay informed.
Discuss your results with your doctor
It’s important to go for any blood tests your doctor prescribes. You should also go a step further and discuss the results of your blood work with your doctor. This will help you understand what your results mean.
Track your results
You may find it helpful to keep track of the trends in your BCR::ABL1 levels. You and your doctor will want to see this level decrease or stay stable over time. If your BCR::ABL1 level starts to increase, your doctor may adjust your dose or consider another treatment option.
Other tests your doctor may require
During your treatment with SCEMBLIX, your doctor should conduct tests to check for side effects. Your doctor may periodically monitor your blood pressure. Your doctor may also check your blood cell counts (white blood cells, red blood cells, platelets) and test for pancreatitis. Your doctor may also order a pregnancy test before you start your CML treatment.
