@loribmt - Are you familiar with Danziten? If approved by insurance, I will start taking it. I asked my Hematologist to consult with my Cardiologist to ensure there are no concerns before starting it since I have a history of afib with ablations.

Hi @mjbulte. I don’t have any personal experience with Danziten but a little sleuthing this morning shows it’s a revised version of Nilotinib (Tasinga) which you mentioned.

Here’s the briefing from Azurity Pharmaceuticals:

I haven’t found any members specifically mentioning Danziten yet. But since it’s a relatively new drug on the market it may take a little time for more replies to trickle in.
Fingers crossed for the drug approval! In the meantime, are you still taking the HU?
