For Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia "Headaches, lower back pain, and I look very pale. I take 80 mg, 1 capsule daily. I have only been on this medicine for a bit over a month, so maybe it is too soon to tell what exactly is happening. I will see my doctor in January 2025 and discuss any problems or lack of at that time. This is a very easy medicine to take, and I hope it turns out to work well for me."

Zanubrutinib for Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia "I've been taking Brukinsa for a year. I take two pills twice a day. The pills are easy to swallow. The only side effect I've experienced is bruising. Occasionally, I have a slight headache, but not bad enough that I need to take anything. My blood counts were in range within 2 months of starting Brukinsa."
