Hi Samar, I've been taking it a few months and feel no difference in taking it. Same side effects as with the Name brand Revlimid. Was told by both oncologist and the Specialty Pharmacy that it would not hinder or change my maintenance treatment.

I have been taking Lenalidomide for a couple of months now. My understanding is that Revlimid and Lenalidomide are identical.

I am on the generic for maintenance, and have had no new issues. It is less expensive than Revlimid, but still a very expensive drug.

Absent Defendants’ Unlawful Conspiracy, Generic Revlimid Would Have Been Available No Later Than 2019. Anyone Else Outraged By This?
