Hey everyone just finished 3rd infusion of ippi 10mg. Feeling pretty good beside the itch side effect. It seems like the itch intensified with this infusion but still no rash. I think drinking lots of water and the probiotic I’m taking really helps. I’m like a camel . I drink over 8 glasses of water a day.Cheers Greg

Hi Greg
glad it's going well for you I had itchy skin and rash came after 3 dose but I was on lower dose of ippi. I had 50% reduction in my tumours and glad it worked I do not have braf gene so ippi was my first treatment.
keep update and keep well Greg

Hi Greg,
Good to hear it's going fairly easy. I drink a lot of water too, and tea. I get thirsty most at night. My 4th infusion is tomorrow. Do you use lotion when your skin gets itchy? I use Aveeno lotion for mild itchiness and it helps a lot. I do have steroid cream for when my eczema flares up. Hopefully you don't develop a rash. Good luck!

They have been really good!! I think I may have had/have an injection site reaction from round 3. Where I had my IV in my arm has stayed a different color around it about an inch side to side and bumpy. It itches some but mostly when I touch it. Other than that I really can't complain. I did only do the 3mg dosage though. Keep us posted on your last round. Hope things stay just like they are!
