Compared with #pomalidomide and #dexamethasone, #venetoclax and dexamethasone did not produce statistically different PFS in those with R/R t(11;14) multiple #myeloma #MMsm, an indication that the combo may not be a good option in this patient population: https://ow.ly/Z0Pf50YsTST

Among older and frail patients with #MultipleMyeloma #MMsm, a dexamethasone-sparing regimen with #daratumumab and #lenalidomide reduced the risk of progression or death compared with lenalidomide and #dexamethasone alone, at a PFS of 53.4 vs. 22.5 months: https://ow.ly/YXzG50XT7Aw

Perioperative Dexamethasone to Regulate Inflammation: Not For Everyone?

💉Dexamethasone use was associated with fewer major complications, a significant reduction in renal failure, and shorter hospital stays. However, in patients >80 years old, its use seemed linked to a potential increase in 30-day mortality.

Had some dental surgery on Monday. The side effects of the drugs the dentist gave me just floored me. Thought it was the the antibiotics, bur it was not. It was a steroid called dexamethesone. I'm glad it was a short course of meds, it's now done. Nasty shit!

Good news! The medical treatment (steroids) were effective. I had to fight my doc to start at a low dose, since I almost always have a negative reaction to #dexamethasone. He agreed to start me at 5 mg, and it was totally effective. I feel better, and I'm being released.
