A member asked:
What are the risks of my cholesterol going higher while taking anastrozole? i already take a statin?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
You are already taking statin so that side effect can be ignored. If it gets higher, your doctor can adjust statin dose. It would be prudent to have your blood tested 3 months after starting anastrozole.
