Is it okay to drink green tea while taking tamoxifen?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Yes- may help!: There are no known adverse interactions between green tea and tamoxifen. Green tea has powerful anti-cancer properties. There is some research that even suggests that the benefits of tamoxifen are enhanced by taking green tea. See http://www.Ncbi.Nlm.Nih.Gov/pubmed/16785249.
