Is there any problem with taking cranberry extract with tamoxifen?
As far as I know there is no interaction but unfortuantely there have not been any studies on this. YOu kind of have to take it at your own risk. I'm sorry I can't be more helpful, but does that help you at all?

I don't see why it should be a problem. I think it is anything you can take to help build the immune system up is a plus. I had cancer treatments & have taking herbs & other things that were immune system builders. The hospital did say we don't recommend this but, it's working so don't stop. Some think when one is on any chemo they don't want you taking a immune system builder because, it affects the drug in chemo as fighting it. My thoughts were this is working for me I have to keep up the fight. I did I won.

So to be clear, you are actually drinking cranberry juice and taking tamoxifen at the same time? I hadn't hear much about it but if it works well for you, I think that's great to hear. How long have you been taking it?
