Gilteritinib for acute myeloid leukaemia (AML)

Acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) is a fast-growing blood cancer that involves the white blood cells. Gilteritinib can be used to treat some adults with AML that has not responded to treatment or has come back after treatment.

We cover what gilteritinib is, who might take it, and how to take it. We also cover its main side effects and any special precautions you may need to take while you’re on it.
