Hi, I have recently come off of letrozole after some terrible side effects. I have had carpal tunnel, I now have bursitis in my hip and much leg pain. Does anyone know how long it takes to get this wretched drug out of your system?

  • Hi Denny1

    Sorry to hear that you've had bad side effects on letrozole.  While I don't have an answer for you I noticed that you haven't had any replies let so I thought I'd reply to you to move you to the top of the discussion.  Hopefully someone will be along with a reply for you soon.  Alternatively you could put the question into our Ask a Nurse section of the website, you'll need to wait a couple of days for a reply.  Here's the link to Ask a Nurse: Ask a Nurse .

    Hope you feel better soon.

    Best wishes

    I've just come off Letrozole after nearly 2 years. Side effects increased over time for me. When it began to affect my sleep and brain I'd had enough. Some women are fine on these tablets though.

    1. It can take up to 10 days for it to go from your system
