What should I tell my health care providers before I take this medicine?

You should not use sorafenib if you are allergic to it, or if you have squamous cell lung cancer and you are being treated with carboplatin (Paraplatin) and paclitaxel (Onxol, Taxol, Abraxane).

To make sure sorafenib is safe for you, tell your doctor if you have:

  • kidney or liver problems other than cancer;

Do not use sorafenib if you are pregnant. It could harm the unborn baby.

Do not crush, chew, or break a sorafenib tablet. Swallow it whole with water. Your blood pressure will need to be checked often. If you need surgery or dental work, tell the surgeon or dentist ahead of time that you are using sorafenib. You may need to stop using the medicine for a short time.

What if I miss a dose?

Take the missed dose as soon as you remember, but at least 2 hours since your last meal. Skip the missed dose if it is almost time for your next scheduled dose. Do not take extra medicine to make up the missed dose.

What may interact with this medicine?
