Breast Cancer Drug is a Danger, Disguised as a Blessing

Breast Cancer Drug is a Danger, Disguised as a Blessing

by Health Services Institute (HSI), 07/21/08

I came across dowethics.com when I was researching a tip sent to me by my colleague Melissa Hickle, Managing Editor of the HSI Members Alert. Melissa recently discovered that tamoxifen - a drug used to treat breast cancer - was identified as a carcinogen by the California EPA more than 10 YEARS ago!

And that information led me to one of the most astonishing quotes I've ever read.

On one hand, this synthetic hormone-like drug effectively prevents estrogen from binding to breast cancer cells. That's why tamoxifen is more effective than chemotherapy in treating estrogen- driven breast cancer tumors - the most common type of breast cancer tumor in postmenopausal women.

Unfortunately the list of tamoxifen side effects reads like a list of menopausal symptoms: hot flashes, nausea, vomiting, weight gain, mood swings, depression, and loss of energy. Add deep-vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, and you've got a drug that should make any woman wonder: Is this an acceptable risk?
