Does pycnogenol interfere with femara (letrozole)? it helps alleviate my joint pain and side effects from the femara (letrozole).

Not really.: Pycnogenol is a strong anti-oxidant from pine bark. It contains nothing which would interfere with femara!

Not to my knowledge: Pycnogenol is known to be a natural antinflammatory. To my knowledge, it has not been shown to interfere with most medications.
