150 mg twice a day. Two pills a day (morning and night). Side effects of Verzenio were diarrhea for the first few weeks, neutropenia, and hair thinning. If your neutrophils go below 1.0 the protocol is a drug holiday and then dose reduction. Eating dark chocolate 1-2 hrs prior to lab work will push the neutrophil count up.
