Hiya, I started on Tamoxifen last May and apart from not being able to sleep until I worked out when to take the tablet and giving me constipation I didn’t suffer any other side effects. From what I’ve read on here, I have been very lucky. My periods stopped which was a bonus too!! I was given a different brand this year though and my periods came back and my skin has gone super itchy and it has made me very dry ‘down there’. I would like to go back to the original brand, but didn’t keep a note of what it was. I’ve trawled various sites, asked the GP and pharmacist, but no luck yet, so I was wondering if anyone could help me please. It was a white box with a pink arc on one corner - think it was the bottom left - has anyone had that one who could tell me what the brand was pls?
Hello Nat,
thank you for replying - I think the one I had also had lactose in. I gave IBS and lactose was one of the things that upset my stomach, so I was wary of trying it, but the effects of that were counteracted with the constipation from the tamoxifen - so I can now eat loads of the things I couldn’t before - every cloud and all that!
I’ve had a search - if this is the APS box - it isn’t the same unfortunately x
