I did not have a good experience with Verzenio. I took this drug for about 5 wks and each day was diarrhea. I have diverticulitis and, I believe, this drug caused me a trip to the ER. Every day there were multiple liquid stools & pain. I was unable to go very far from the bathroom. I couldn’t replace all the fluid loss. I ended getting an IV at our clinic. Currently I am taking Kisqali and so far it’s been ok. What i just messaged you was only my experience. If you decide to go with this drug, you may not have this experience. You won’t know unless you try. Good luck with your treatment.
