My friend who is taking Stimu-Let often sweats a lot. Is it because of Stimu-Let?
This could be a sign of hot flushes which is a very common side effect of Stimu-Let. It happens due to decreased estrogen levels. The frequency of hot flushes reduces once your body adjusts to Stimu-Let. However, in some people the flushes and sweats may continue during the treatment and stop a few months after the treatment finishes. You can consult your doctor who will provide you a remedy if it is very bothersome.
If I am taking irbesartan to control my blood pressure, can I take Stimu-Let?
Yes, you can take irbesartan and Stimu-Let together. However, be careful and keep a regular check on your blood pressure since Stimu-Let may increase your blood pressure. Consult your doctor in case you have problems controlling your blood pressure.
How does Stimu-Let work?
Stimu-Let is also known as an anti-estrogen drug. It is called so because it acts by reducing the production of estrogen in your body by blocking the enzyme aromatase, which is responsible for production of estrogen. Estrogen stimulates the production of certain types of breast cancer in your body. These cancers are called estrogen-dependent cancers . Reducing the production of estrogen may prevent the cancer from growing.
