            COMMON BRAND NAME(S): Tykerb

            WARNING: Rarely, people taking lapatinib have developed serious (possibly fatal) liver problems. Your doctor will perform liver function tests before and during treatment to monitor for this side effect. Keep all medical/lab appointments. Tell your doctor right away if you develop symptoms of liver disease such as nausea that doesn't stop, stomach/abdominal pain, dark urine, or yellowing eyes/skin. Do not restart this medication if you have previously stopped taking it due to liver problems.

            USES: Lapatinib is used to treat a certain type of breast cancer (HER2-positive). It works by slowing or stopping the growth of cancer cells.

            HOW TO USE: Read the Patient Information Leaflet if available from your pharmacist before you start using lapatinib and each time you get a refill. If you have any questions, ask your doctor or pharmacist.Take this medication by mouth 1 hour before or 1 hour after a meal as directed by your doctor, usually once daily. It is important that you do not take this medication more than once daily.The dosage is based on your medical condition, response to treatment, and other medications you may be taking. Be sure to tell your doctor and pharmacist about all the products you use (including prescription drugs, nonprescription drugs, and herbal products).Do not increase your dose or take this medication more often than prescribed. Your condition will not improve any faster, and the risk of serious side effects may be increased.Avoid eating grapefruit or drinking grapefruit juice while using this medication unless your doctor or pharmacist says you may do so safely. Grapefruit can increase the chance of side effects with this medicine. Ask your doctor or pharmacist for more details.Since this drug can be absorbed through the skin and lungs, women who are pregnant or who may become pregnant should not handle this medication or breathe the dust from the tablets.Follow your doctor's instructions on how to correctly take capecitabine or letrozole with lapatinib.

If any of these effects last or get worse, tell your doctor or pharmacist promptly.Diarrhea is a common side effect and may become severe. Tell your doctor right away if diarrhea occurs or if you have signs of dehydration such as dizziness or decreased urination. Your doctor should prescribe additional medication to help control your symptoms. If your diarrhea becomes severe, your doctor may need to stop or delay your lapatinib treatment.Treatment with this drug may sometimes cause your hands/feet to develop a skin reaction called hand-foot syndrome (palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia). Tell your doctor right away if you experience swelling, pain, redness, peeling, blisters, or tingling/burning of the hands/feet. The symptoms can be made worse by heat/pressure on your hands/feet. Avoid prolonged sun exposure, tanning booths, and sunlamps, as well as unnecessary exposure to heat (such as hot dishwater, long hot baths). Use a sunscreen and wear protective clothing when outdoors. Avoid pressure on elbows, knees, and soles of feet (such as leaning on elbows, kneeling, taking long walks). Wear loose clothing and comfortable shoes. Depending on how severe your hand-foot syndrome is, your doctor may give you an additional medication to reduce the symptoms, or stop or delay your lapatinib treatment.Remember that this medication has been prescribed because your doctor has judged that the benefit to you is greater than the risk of side effects. Many people using this medication do not have serious side effects.Tell your doctor right away if you have any serious side effects, including: unusual tiredness, shortness of breath, swelling ankles/feet.Get medical help right away if you have any very serious side effects, including: fast/pounding/irregular heartbeat, dizziness, fainting.A very serious allergic reaction to this drug is rare. However, get medical help right away if you notice any symptoms of a serious allergic reaction, including: rash, itching/swelling (especially of the face/tongue/throat), severe dizziness, trouble breathing.This is not a complete list of possible side effects.
