Selpercatinib RET Inhibitor $500

So, selpercatinib is a pill that’s made just for certain cancers, like a really rare type of lung cancer and thyroid cancer. It works by stopping something called RET kinase. This is a protein that actually tells cancer cells to grow and split up.

You can take it in tiny gel caps that are 40 milligrams or 80 milligrams. The usual amount is two 80 mg capsules, so 160 mg in total. You need to take this combo twice a day.

You don’t have to eat anything while taking it, and it comes in jars with 60 caps inside. Just remember to pop these pills at the same time every day, like in the morning and at night, regardless of whether you’ve eaten yet.
