What to change Etruzil to avoid side effects?

Good morning, After breast cancer sparing surgery, I have been prescribed the drug Etruzil 2.5 mg. I take it for 15 months, but its side effects are very tiring for me. My ankle legs are so swollen and my feet all the way to my toes. I can't even leave the house because of a lack of shoes. I had a Doppler test, but the patency of the veins is as it should be. The vascular surgeon suggested changing the drug. I asked for a change of medication to the oncologist, but the doctor refused, claiming that I had the best drug.

Have you had lymph nodes removed from this leg? If so, it could be lymphedema – lymphatic stasis. You need to see a lymphologist.

Changes in the medicine used can only be made by a doctor based on your medical history and tolerance of the therapies used so far. If the side effects of Etruzil hinder your normal functioning, I encourage you to consult your doctor again. You can also seek advice from another doctor, e.g. through teleadvice offered, m.in by the Gdziepolek.pl: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/telekonsultacja/z-onkologiem portal, I also encourage you to report the occurrence of side effects of Etruzil. Reporting adverse reactions allows you to increase control over medicines available on the market. We wrote more about how and why to report side effects in the article: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jak-i-dlaczego-zglaszac-dzialania-niepozadane I enclose a link to check the availability of Etruzil and make a reservation at the selected pharmacy: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/27899/etruzil-tabletki-powlekane/apteki I encourage you to familiarize yourself with additional materials that may be useful: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/czy-bac-sie-dzialan-niepozadanych-lekow https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/przewodnik-po-terapiach-przeciwnowotworowych
