ginnyde Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 Rachel, Earl was on Temodar for about 2 months. Unfortunately, by the time he went on it he probably had way too many brain tumors to really help. He took one pill a day for 5 days and then nothing for 23 days. He got sick to his stomach on the first day each time. He took the pill right before sleep to lessen the nausea and I gave him a compazine with each pill to help ward off nausea. It is supposed to pass through the blood brain barrier and has good press. I hope it works well for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
