I take Olanzapine every night. 10mg on day of infusion and next four nights. Then back down to 5mg. On the other anti nausea meds, I use both Zofran (when I wake up, mid day and when I go to bed). And compazine twice a day in between the Zofran. That is for the first week post infusion. Second week I pull pack to Zofran only in morning and before bed. I do think the Olanzapine was the game changer for me. If I have diarrhea, I take two Imodium right away and that stops it. I still get fatigued easily with long work days, but overall I can function very well.

I am I. Lexington Kentucky and being treated at the University of Kentuckey’s Markey cancer center.

Thank you so much for this information. Very helpful. Just one question...are you on the Olanzapine all the time? This is the most recent med they prescribed him and they only gave him like a 4 day supply. Are you also on Folfirinox? Thank you in advance.
