For Non Small Cell Lung Cancer "I’ve been taking 40 mg since Dec 2020. I do have bowel issues, but I take a laxative that helps. I don’t have much of an appetite, but I drink protein shakes. I do get the occasional blisters on my hands and sometimes in my mouth. I do have adult acne. So far, it has shrunk my cancer. It hasn’t had enough negative effects to make me want to stop. So far, so good. I’m tired, but I’m also stage four, so... God bless."

For Non Small Cell Lung Cancer "Side effects can be very difficult and repetitive, but I believe I am saving my life. I have experienced almost all of them and am presently suffering from mouth sores for an extended period of time, i.e., several sores weekly, clear for two days, back for another two weeks, etc. I am, of course, very tired constantly but continue my positive, happy attitude of being a recipient of Tagrisso, which allows me to keep my life moving forward and let Tagrisso contend with lung cancer. I would appreciate reading other reviews. Thank you."
