Dosage os Tamoxifen
I have just started on 20mg of tamoxifen but I get zero sleep on it. I have had breast cancer previously and took 10mg tamoxifen and coped quite well, this time however my oncologist wants me on 20mg....
Hi Pink, like you,I’ve had the mongrel twice. After the first time,I tried Tamoxifen for about 4mths and couldn’t stand it so ditched it and hoped for the best. I had 7 good years and then it came back in the same spot.So I resigned myself to take Tamoxifen and see it through. The only way I managed it was to take a low dose antidepressant called Endep 10mg.It helped with sleep,mood and hot flushes and didn’t have any side effects at such a low dose.I managed to take T for 4 yrs. It’s been 8 yrs now since the last bc so hopefully Tamoxifen helped but who knows.
