Brazil, IN

Good afternoon! I started with Jakavi in ​​April 22 with 20mg/day. In November '22 I had to increase it to 30mg and this week the hematologist increased it to 40mg. Who is taking the Jakavi in ​​the group? How was the evolution? How long did it take to get to the proper dosage?
Thanks to anyone who can give me feedback.

I am 75 with PMF and am on Jakafi (5mg 2x per day) in Manifest 2 trial for past six months. It’s working extremely well. I have not experienced any side effects such as weight gain and my spleen size has been reduced. My anemia symptoms have also diminished. I have MPL, SRSF2, ASXL1, and TET2 mutations - No Jak2 or CALR.
