Neratinib is a type of drug that’s supposed to help with a kind of breast cancer that has a certain protein, HER2. It keeps those EGFR and HER2 signals from getting passed along in the body. This med comes as these little 40 mg pills with a coating on them.
Adults usually take 240 mg of this stuff once a day, and it’s best to have it with food. One bottle usually has 180 pills, which should last about a month. Since it’s an irreversible inhibitor, it sticks to that HER2 receptor and doesn’t let go, keeping the signal pathway down.
The tablets should be swallowed whole and not chewed or divided, and they can be taken with or without food, but should be taken consistently with food to enhance absorption. You gotta try to take this at about the same time every day so the levels of it in your blood stay consistent. You’ll be keeping an eye on how you feel while you’re on it, just to be sure everything’s good.
