What is Tasigna

Tasigna (nilotinib) is a cancer medicine that interferes with the growth and spread of cancer cells in the body.

Tasigna is used to treat a type of blood cancer called Philadelphia chromosome positive chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) in adults and children who are at least 1 year old.

Tasigna is usually given after other medications have been tried without success.

Warnings

You should not use Tasigna if you have long QT syndrome, or low blood levels of potassium or magnesium.

Tasigna can cause a serious heart problem, especially if you use certain other medicines at the same time. Tell your doctor about all your other medicines. Your heart function may need to be checked before and during treatment with this medicine.

Call your doctor right away or get emergency medical help if you have fast or pounding heartbeats and sudden dizziness (like you might pass out).

Take Tasigna on an empty stomach. Avoid eating anything for at least 2 hours before and 1 hour after you take your dose.
