Learn About Side Effects and Intolerance in CML


  • Side effects are common among people who are being treated for chronic myeloid leukemia (CML)
  • Not everyone responds the same way to medication, so your side effects may be different from someone else's
  • Some reactions to CML treatment can be managed by you and your doctor. However, in some cases, side effects cannot be tolerated because they are so bothersome that they impact your daily activities. This is known as intolerance
  • If you have an unbearable side effect with one CML treatment, there are different treatments from which you may benefit, for you and your doctor to consider.
  • Contact your doctor immediately if you experience any side effects
