  • Alcohol and letrozole. Might make your face flushed. More important side effect is high cholesterol levels. No one has told me about that and a cardiologist tried to get me to take stating because cholesterol test returned higher than normal for the 1st time ever. He not once linked taking letrozole. I refused, looks like I was correct. I will now tell my GP why its newly high.
