Episode 043: Myeloma Series, Pt.4 - Myeloma Pharmacology

In this continuation of our myeloma series, we begin our discussion about treatment options for multiple myeloma, focusing first on pharmacology. We are so thrilled to have a special guest, Kathryn Maples, PharmD, BCOP who is a clinical pharmacy specialist in Multiple Myeloma at the Winship Cancer Institute of Emory Healthcare in Atlanta, Georgia!

Content:

- What are common drugs we use in "triplet regimens"? "quadruple therapy"?

- What considerations must we take into account when prescribing commonly used medications in myeloma?

- How should we counsel our patients?

- What about supportive care?

- How and when do we make dose adjustments?

- This episode is SO eye-opening about the "behind the scenes" of myeloma care that physicians do not see
