How much Erlotinib is taken daily?

So, Erlotinib is this cool drug that blocks a thing called EGFR, and it’s really useful for treating lung and pancreatic cancer in people who have these EGFR things. It blocks this signaling thing that EGFR does. There are three doses to pick from: 25, 100, and 150 milligrams.

The doc usually recommends 150 milligrams of the stuff once every day, and you need to take it on an empty belly. Each bottle comes with 30 tablets. It’s designed to hit on those specific mutations in the EGFR that help cancer cells grow.

Patients need to follow the dosage they’re given and take it like they’re told to make sure it works the best it can and doesn’t cause too much trouble.
