Non-Malignant Effects on the Uterus: An increased incidence of endometrial changes including hyperplasia and polyps have been reported in association with Tamoxifen treatment.

Thromboembolic Effects of Tamoxifen: There is evidence of an increased incidence of thromboembolic events, including deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, during Tamoxifen therapy.

Effects on the liver: Liver cancer: In the Swedish trial using adjuvant tamoxifen 40 mg/day for 2 years to 5 years, 3 cases of liver cancer have been reported in the Tamoxifen-treated group vs. 1 case in the observation group.

Effects on the liver: Non-malignant effects: Tamoxifen has been associated with changes in liver enzyme levels, and on rare occasions, a spectrum of more severe liver abnormalities including fatty liver, cholestasis, hepatitis and hepatic necrosis. A few of these serious cases included fatalities.

Other cancers: A number of second primary tumors, occurring at sites other than the endometrium, have been reported following the treatment of breast cancer with Tamoxifen in clinical trials.

Effects on the Eye: Cases of visual disturbances, including corneal changes, decrement in color vision perception, retinal vein thrombosis, and common reports of retinopathy have been reported in patients receiving Tamoxifen Citrate tablets.

Nolvadol (Tamoxifen Citrate tablets) – Drug Interactions

The drug Interactions of are given below:
When Tamoxifen Citrate tablets are used in combination with coumarin type anticoagulants, a significant increase in anticoagulant effect may occur. Where such co-administration is started, careful monitoring of the patient is recommended.
When Tamoxifen Citrate is administered in combination with cytotoxic agents, there is increased risk of thromboembolic events occurring.
The use of Tamoxifen Citrate in combination with an aromatase inhibitor as adjuvant therapy has not shown improved efficacy compared with Tamoxifen alone.
The known principal pathway for tamoxifen metabolism in humans is demethylation, catalysed by CYP3A4 enzymes. Pharmacokinetic interaction with the CYP3A4 inducing agent Rifampicin, showing a reduction in tamoxifen plasma levels has been reported.
Cytochrome P450 2D6 (CYP2D6) plays an important role in the metabolism of Tamoxifen Citrate. CYP2D6 helps convert Tamoxifen Citrate to Endoxifen (a potent active metabolite of Tamoxifen). Therefore, co-administration of Tamoxifen with CYP2D6 inhibitors such as Paroxetine, Fluoxetine and Bupropion may reduce plasma levels of Endoxifen and should be avoided where possible.
