Medication interactions

Hi. I take tamoxifen, and I’m going on a cruise soon. Is there any recommendations for motion sickness tablets, that don’t interact with tamoxifen please? 

  • Hello and thank you for posting

    It is difficult to give a medical opinion on the exact interaction between two drugs. Still, I do not expect there would be a problem as travel sickness tablets work in a similar way as anti-sickness tablets and these are often prescribed with other treatments.

    It would be good to discuss this as well with your pharmacist and maybe your breast care nurse (CNS).

    Take care and I hope you have an amazing time on your holiday. If you find it helpful talk things through with one of the nurses on our helpline.  The number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9 am till 5 pm Monday to Friday.

    Sarah.
