I have been on tarceva almost a month. Seem to have a canker sore on my upper gum. Was wondering if anyone else has had this problem. It might not even be from tarceva but you gotta wonder. marcia
I've had mouth sores during two rounds of chemo and Tarceva. I also wear partial plates, so I have an added irritation. My dentist recommended this: mix equal amounts of Kaopectate and Benadryl and swish around in your mouth. It really isn't as disgusting as it sounds, and better yet, it really works.
