Desperate for suggestions
I have been on Arimidex ( Anastrozole) since 4 and half years, recently having un tolerable side effects.I have heard that switching to it's generic brand it may give less side effects. It is a week ...
I've been on 3 AIs so far, @Zan - starting wth Letrozole then Exemestane & then Arimidex. I've recently changed to a generic brand as Arimidex now has a $5 charge on top of the PBS .... so trying Anastrozole. I think my side effects have lessened - but as @June1952 says - give it at least 6-8 weeks to see if 'settles down'. My only other choice after this is Tamoxifen!
take care & I hope that your side effects lessen xx
