Tamoxifen side effects
I’ve been on Tamoxifen now since November and been absolutely fine. I was using a Generic brand Genox all good. The pharmacist gave me a different brand this time and since last week I have felt this...
Oh dear! I wonder if staying with non generics has less unwanted
effects. A sister member has commented about the fillers in Generics. I have heard this as well. Generics are cheaper and
pharmacies are incentivised to sell them by the Government under the PBS. There is added cost to non generics. Our town has 4 pharmacies. 3 run by the same company. They limit non generics
and often out of stock, trying to convince me to take the generic brand. Pharmacies should carry sufficient stock to give you a choice.
