Balversa 4mg Tablets are an FDA-approved treatment for a specific type of bladder cancer with FGFR alterations. My oncologist prescribed it to me, and I'm curious to know if anyone else has taken it and what their experience was like. Balversa works by inhibiting the signals cancer cells need to grow and spread. The list of possible side effects is long, but I've only experienced some of them. The most challenging part has been managing the dry mouth and eyes, but artificial tears and regular sipping of water have helped. I'm really hoping to hear from others who might have more tips or insights to share. I also want to know if anyone has experienced any of the more serious side effects and how they dealt with them.
