How do I take Femara?

Femara comes as a tablet that is taken by mouth once a day with or without food (unless your doctor gives you different instructions). Your dosage is based on your medical condition, so follow the instructions your doctor or pharmacist gives you carefully. Do not take more of the Femara drug than you have been prescribed or give your medication to anyone else.

What if I forget to take a dose of Femara?

Take the missed dose of Femara as soon as you remember, unless it is almost time for another dose. In this case, skip the missed dose and continue with your normal dosage schedule. Never take more tablets than you have been prescribed in an effort to catch up.

What happens if I overdose on Femara?

Overdosing on Femara can be dangerous and may increase your risk for serious side effects. If you or someone in your household has overdosed, call Poison Control at 1-800-222-1222 or go to the nearest emergency room.

Before taking Femara, tell your doctor if:

• You are allergic to this medication or have any other allergies

• You are taking any other prescription or over-the-counter medications or supplements

• You have high cholesterol or high blood pressure

• You have a history of bone problems (such as osteoporosis)

• You have had a stroke or blood clots

• You have any heart problems

What are the possible side effects of taking Femara?

The Femara drug may cause nausea, dizziness, diarrhea, hot flashes, sweating, unusual tiredness, hair loss, or pain in the bones, muscles, or joints. If you have any side effects that persist or are bothersome, tell your doctor. Contact your doctor immediately if you experience any rare but serious side effects, including unusual mood changes, blurred vision, jaundice, dark urine, swelling of the arms or legs, or bone fractures. You should also talk to your doctor about factors that may increase your risk of developing blood clots while taking this medication and the possible signs of a blood clot.

How do I store Femara?

Store Femara in a tightly sealed container at room temperature, away from moisture and bright light. Do not keep it in the bathroom, as the increased humidity may compromise its efficacy. Keep your medication out of reach of pets and children, and if you have any unused tablets that you need to dispose of, talk to your pharmacist about how to safely do so.

Warnings

Because the possible side effects of Femara include dizziness, tiredness, and blurred vision, you should avoid driving or participating in any other activity that requires alertness and clear vision until you know how the medication affects you. You should also limit alcohol consumption while taking the Femara drug.
