blue lips side effect olaparib

[Beatbigc]

I’ve just started olaparib maintenance therapy following debunking and chemo that finished in January.

I have started to get blue lips. My only other side effects are joint pain (helped by onega 3 and exercise) and mild nausea.

Has anyone else had blue lips? Is it serious?

Dear Beatbigc,

Thank you for your message. There can be many causes of blue lips, but it is important to have medical advice about this. We would advise contacting either your GP, chemotherapy hotline number or NHS111 today in order to speak with a medical professional.

Best wishes,
