It works quickly. But side effects are stomach problems and diarrhea you learn to deal with it. Split taking the dosage. 400mg In two sessions within 1hour in between. Gas is also a big problem too. Watch what you eat. Overall, deal with the side effects and be happy it is chronic and NOT acute. Life is good, live it to the fullest !

Gleevec stopped working and I became very ill, platelets rose and also white blood cell count. Worked very quickly and now I am in a blood remission with platelets slightly low at 119 and wbc at 5 rbc at 4.5 Happy with this medication.
