Hi, my mum should soon start with Alpelisib - Piqray therapy. She used Ribociclib and Fulvestrant for almost 2 years prior to this. Please share your experience with this medicine, side effects, how to manage as well as results of the therapy.

Hi Amina 116,
Please see my first post above re Piqray. Like your Mom I’ve been on the Ribociclib/ Faslodex combo. It worked for 15 months. I’ve been on Piqray for almost 2 months. No rebated blood sugars. YET. I’ve had a few bouts of diarrhea but that seems to have stabilized. I have noticed mouth sores and a metallic taste in mouth. Please let me know how your mom is doing on this med. There aren’t a lot of women on it.
