My husband is on maintenance with Velcade, Faspro and Dec. His primary oncologist recommended 12 mg of Dex but the local doctor wants to give an additional 8 at time of injections. I was just curious how much others took when on maintenance

Every month 3 pills of Dex which is $18.08 with the shot of Darzalex FasPro $27,355.80. Amazing!

Is Anyone Here On Darzalex And Cortizone Only? Not Combined With Revlimid Or Another Drug? I Am Wondering Why My Doctor Has Not Combined It.
