@kaydaustin Hi Katie. We are a group of oncology pharmacists who operate a non-profit website for free chemotherapy education. We would be very interested to hear about your software and potentially help further your important vision on bringing awareness to clinical trials.

Couldn’t agree more! I actually started building an app last year because I was frustrated with how difficult trials were to find. It allowed you to subscribe for updates and follow/dismiss trials so you could stay up-to-date on the latest from when you last checked. I started writing my memoir so had to set this project down but would happily open source the code if anyone wants to pick it up. I may also be able to contribute to it again soon as my book’s published 🤞

@graham74GC Dr. Collins, can we please get a RT to help spread the word of ChemoExperts.com to as many patients and providers as possible? Completely free cancer treatment information created by clinical oncology pharmacists!

It is very important to take rivaroxaban with food as this increases the amount of the drug that is absorbed. Taking on an empty stomach may decrease the effectiveness of rivaroxaban. Of note, the 10 mg tablet may be taken with or without food. #CEtips chemoexperts.com

Medicines taken for heartburn that reduce stomach acid can decrease absorption of dasatinib (Sprycel). Short-acting antacids can be used instead of proton pump inhibitors or H2-antagonists. Do not take antacids within 2 hours of taking dasatinib. #CEtips chemoexperts.com

If you are taking eltrombopag (Promacta) or prescribing it to your patients, it is VERY important for patients to take it on an empty stomach. Food may decrease absorption and lessen effectiveness. Food should be avoided for 1 hour before and 2 hours after each tablet. #CETips
