They should not be touching your meds and you need to wash your hands well after taking your meds.

Family members who are pregnant or planning to become pregnant must avoid contact with this medication. Otherwise there should be no problem with families and friends being around you.

Hello

No problem with family and friends being around you. One exception would be if someone is trying to get pregnant they should not handle your revlimid. I am on Revlmid for the second time and each time before starting, I had a consultation with the specialty pharmacist who went over everything regarding the drug.

Good luck with your treatment.😊
