I've been prescribed Brukinsa 80mg (zanubrutinib) 4 capsules daily plus Allopurinol tablets 300mg 1 daily plus Co-Trimoxazole 160mg/800mg 1 tablet twice a day on Mondays and Thursdays only. Does anyone know of the side effects I might have while taking this medication please.

I have been on Brukinsa 80X2 per day( half dose due to age 77) and two tabs acyclovir as per advice from m Mayo haematologist
I was on allopurinol for the first three months but stopped once my lymph nodes got significantly less and chance of TLS reduced

So far no major side effects except earlier some bruising
Blood CBC near normal.

@tezy15plus5, I moved your question about side effects to this related discussion:

How are you doing with Brukinsa? Any side effects? How long have you been taking it?
