Hi
@MJ04 and
@kmakmI am sorry to read that you are suffering badly on Letrozole.
I am also taking it - when I started I had the generic brand and did have shoulder and wrist pains. I then swapped to the brand version Femara and have had no pain whatsoever following this switch.
I read that Generic
drugs are required to have 80% active ingredients to match the BRAND
drug. The remaining 20% are “fillers” which differentiate the generic
from each manufacturer and the Brand. While these fillers are very
small amounts, many women swear they trigger various side effects for
them. Many pharmacists and doctors will insist the differences are too
tiny to have this effect, but again, many women would disagree. It has worked for me and I am very grateful.
