Re: Anyone on Evista?

I have been on Evista since the time I finished my treatment. I too have moderate Osteopenia.

I have not experienced any side effects. Evista (raloxifiene) is supposed to as good as Tamoxifen but without the side effects from what I understand.

Just remember to take your calcium supplements with Evista.

Cheers,
shobha
