Watch Out For Interactions with Tamoxifen (Nolvadex)
Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women
and tamoxifen (
NOLVADEX ) is used commonly in the treatment
and sometimes in the prevention of this disease. In 2007, 1.7 million prescriptions were filled for tamoxifen.
However, recent evidence suggests that certain other drugs can reduce the anti-cancer effects of tamoxifen,
potentially increasing cancer recurrence and reducing survival.
