How can I get the most from treatment with REBLOZYL?

REBLOZYL can help manage anemia and may help reduce the number of red blood cell (RBC) transfusions you may need over time. Before you start REBLOZYL treatment, it’s important to set treatment goals, including potential RBC transfusion reduction, with your healthcare team. Treatment goals can help you stay focused on what you want to achieve with REBLOZYL treatment. Be sure to keep talking with your healthcare team about what you want from treatment. Together, you can make sure you get the most out of REBLOZYL.

Getting the most from your treatment means working closely with your healthcare team to monitor:

  • New or changing symptoms
  • Your blood test results
  • The frequency of transfusions
  • The number of RBC units in each transfusion
  • Your REBLOZYL dose over time

It’s important that you keep track of all your transfusions and the number of RBC units in each transfusion while receiving REBLOZYL. This will help you talk with your healthcare team to get the most from REBLOZYL and meet your treatment goals. The BT Patient Brochure is a useful resource that can help you know what to expect throughout your REBLOZYL journey.

How can I prepare for my appointments?

When you meet with your healthcare team to discuss how you’ve been feeling, it can be difficult to remember your symptoms since your last visit. It may help to keep track of any new or changing symptoms, including:

  • How often or long you need to rest
  • Ability to do daily tasks and activities, such as driving
  • Feeling dizzy
  • Feeling out of breath
  • Feeling weak

It may be useful to write down how you feel in a notebook or on a tablet or smartphone. By keeping track of how you’re feeling over time, you and your healthcare team can see how REBLOZYL is working for you.
