Treat this disorder. However, both reasonable and unjustified concerns have led some counselors and clients to oppose using medications to treat alcohol dependence.29 These concerns should be dealt with proactively by addressing the barriers to integration of medication into addiction treatment and helping patients, staff, and 12-step peers to remain open-minded about their use. Some clinicians and patients incorrectly perceive medication use to be inconsistent with the 12-step treatment philosophy. In reality, Alcoholics Anonymous does not disapprove of appropriately prescribed nonaddictive medications in the treatment of alcohol dependence.28 and fosamax.

In both the osteoporosis treatment and prevention trials, EVISTA therapy resulted in consistent, statistically significant suppression of bone resorption and bone formation, as reflected by changes in serum and urine markers of bone turnover e.g., bone-specific alkaline phosphatase, osteocalcin, and collagen breakdown products ; . The suppression of bone turnover markers was evident by 3 months and persisted throughout the 36-month and 24-month observation periods. In a 31-week, open-label, radiocalcium kinetics study, 33 early postmenopausal women were randomized to treatment with once-daily EVISTA 60 mg, cyclic estrogen progestin 0.625 mg conjugated estrogens daily with 5 mg medroxyprogesterone acetate daily for the first 2 weeks of each month [hormone therapy] ; , or no treatment. Treatment with either EVISTA or hormone therapy was associated with reduced bone resorption and a positive shift in calcium balance -82 mg Ca day and + 60 mg Ca day, respectively, for EVISTA and -162 mg Ca day and + 91 mg Ca day, respectively, for hormone therapy ; . There were small decreases in serum total calcium, inorganic phosphate, total protein, and albumin, which were generally of lesser magnitude than decreases observed during estrogen or hormone therapy. Platelet count was also decreased slightly and was not different from estrogen therapy. 12.3 Pharmacokinetics The disposition of raloxifene has been evaluated in more than 3000 postmenopausal women in selected raloxifene osteoporosis treatment and prevention clinical trials, using a population approach. Pharmacokinetic data also were obtained in conventional pharmacology studies in 292 postmenopausal women. Raloxifene exhibits high within-subject variability approximately 30% coefficient of variation ; of most pharmacokinetic parameters. Table 3 summarizes the pharmacokinetic parameters of raloxifene. Absorption -- Raloxifene is absorbed rapidly after oral administration. Approximately 60% of an oral dose is absorbed, but presystemic glucuronide conjugation is extensive. Absolute bioavailability of raloxifene is 2%. The time to reach average maximum plasma concentration and bioavailability are functions of systemic interconversion and enterohepatic cycling of raloxifene and its glucuronide metabolites. Administration of raloxifene HCl with a standardized, high-fat meal increases the absorption of raloxifene Cmax 28% and AUC 16% ; , but does not lead to clinically meaningful changes in systemic exposure. EVISTA can be administered without regard to meals. Distribution -- Following oral administration of single doses ranging from 30 to 150 mg of raloxifene HCl, the apparent volume of distribution is 2348 L kg and is not dose dependent. Raloxifene and the monoglucuronide conjugates are highly 95% ; bound to plasma proteins. Raloxifene binds to both albumin and 1-acid glycoprotein, but not to sex-steroid binding globulin. Metabolism -- Biotransformation and disposition of raloxifene in humans have been determined following oral administration of 14C-labeled raloxifene. Raloxifene undergoes extensive first-pass metabolism to the glucuronide conjugates: raloxifene-4-glucuronide, raloxifene-6-glucuronide, and raloxifene-6, 4-diglucuronide. No other metabolites have been detected, providing strong evidence that raloxifene is not metabolized by cytochrome P450 pathways. Unconjugated raloxifene comprises less than 1% of the total radiolabeled material in plasma. The terminal log-linear portions of the plasma concentration curves for raloxifene and the glucuronides are generally parallel. This is consistent with interconversion of raloxifene and the glucuronide metabolites. Following intravenous administration, raloxifene is cleared at a rate approximating hepatic blood flow. Apparent oral clearance is 44.1 L kghr. Raloxifene and its glucuronide conjugates are interconverted by reversible systemic metabolism and enterohepatic cycling, thereby prolonging its plasma elimination half-life to 27.7 hours after oral dosing. Results from single oral doses of raloxifene predict multiple-dose pharmacokinetics. Following chronic dosing, clearance ranges from 40 to 60 kghr. Increasing doses of raloxifene HCl ranging from 30 to 150 mg ; result in slightly less than a proportional increase in the area under the plasma time concentration curve AUC ; . Excretion -- Raloxifene is primarily excreted in feces, and less than 0.2% is excreted unchanged in urine. Less than 6% of the raloxifene dose is eliminated in urine as glucuronide conjugates.

WARNINGS AND Venous Thromboembolism: Increased risk of deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, and retinal vein thrombosis. Discontinue use 72 hours prior to and during prolonged immobilization. 5.1, 6.1 ; Death Due to Stroke: Increased risk of death due to stroke occurred in a trial in postmenopausal women with documented coronary heart disease or at increased risk for major coronary events. No increased risk of stroke was seen in this trial. Consider risk-benefit balance in women at risk for stroke. 5.2, 14.5 ; Cardiovascular Disease: EVISTA should not be used for the primary or secondary prevention of cardiovascular disease. 5.3, 14.5 ; Premenopausal Women: Use is not recommended. 5.4 ; Hepatic Impairment: Use with caution. 5.5 ; Concomitant Use with Systemic Estrogens: Not recommended. 5.6 ; Hypertriglyceridemia: If previous treatment with estrogen resulted in hypertriglyceridemia, monitor serum triglycerides. 5.7 ; reactions 2% and more common than with placebo ; include: hot flashes, leg cramps, peripheral edema, flu syndrome, arthralgia, sweating. 6.1 ; To report SUSPECTED ADVERSE REACTIONS, contact Eli Lilly and Company at 1-800-545-5979 or FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 or fda.gov medwatch Cholestyramine: Use with EVISTA is not recommended.

KAREN MAGINNIS, ACCENTHEALTH HOST: HELLO, AND THANKS FOR JOINING US. I'M KAREN MAGINNIS AND YOU'RE WATCHING ACCENTHEALTH. THE NUMBER OF HIP FRACTURES FROM OSTEOPOROSIS IS ON THE RISE IN THE UNITED STATES. BUT THERE IS SOME GOOD NEWS FOR MEN AND WOMEN WHO SUFFER FROM THIS BONE-THINNING DISEASE. CNN'S RHONDA ROWLAND TAKES A LOOK AT A NEW DRUG THAT OFFERS NEW HOPE FOR THOSE WITH OSTEOPOROSIS. RHONDA ROWLAND, ACCENTHEALTH REPORTER: FOUR YEARS AGO WHEN LILLIAN MANDYCK WENT TO HER DOCTOR, SHE GOT A DIAGNOSIS THAT CAME AS A BIG SURPRISE HER SPINE WAS FRACTURED. LILLIAN MANDYCK: I had no idea, and I had no pain or any symptoms. I only went because I thought it was time to have a bone density test. ROWLAND: THAT SPINAL FRACTURE WAS A SURE SIGN OF OSTEOPOROSIS. AS PART OF A STUDY, MANDYCK HAS BEEN TAKING A DRUG CALLED ACTONEL ALSO KNOWN AS RISEDRONATE. MANDYCK: It stabilized the condition that I had. They kept track through the bone density test throughout the 4 years and they could show that I didn't get worse. ROWLAND: MORE THAN 2, 400 WOMEN PARTICIPATED IN THE STUDY. RESEARCHERS FOUND AFTER ONE YEAR ON ACTONEL, THE RISK OF SPINAL FRACTURE WAS REDUCED BY 65%. AFTER THREE YEARS ON THE DRUG, FRACTURES WERE REDUCED BY 41%. DR. NELSON WATTS, EMORY UNIVERSITY: We also looked at non-spine fractures, arm and leg fractures, and found a significant 33% reduction over the 3 years of the study. ROWLAND: DR. WATTS SAYS ACTONEL DOES NOT APPEAR TO CAUSE TROUBLING SIDE EFFECTS. THE NEW STUDY SHOWING ACTONEL CAN PROTECT BONES GIVES WOMEN ANOTHER OPTION. THERE ARE OTHER MEDICATIONS AVAILABLE TO FIGHT OSTEOPOROSIS. THEY HAVE THEIR STRENGTHS AND THEIR WEAKNESSES, SO WOMEN SHOULD CONSULT THEIR DOCTOR ABOUT WHICH IS BEST FOR THEM. THE DRUG FOSOMAX PREVENTS FRACTURES AS WELL AS ACTONEL, BUT FOSOMAX IRRITATES THE ESOPHAGUS IN 10% OF PATIENTS. ANOTHER OPTION EVISTA PREVENTS SPINAL FRACTURES, BUT THERE'S NO EVIDENCE THAT IT PREVENTS OTHER TYPES OF FRACTURES. HORMONE REPLACEMENT THERAPY ALSO PROTECTS BONES, BUT CAN INCREASE THE RISK OF BREAST CANCER. BUT THE BIGGEST BARRIER TO TREATMENT IS AWARENESS. ONLY ONE-THIRD OF SPINAL FRACTURES ARE DETECTED. WATTS: And twice as many spine fractures half a million a year go basically undetected and show up as height loss or chronic back pain. And patients who've had that first spine fracture need to be treated. ROWLAND: LILLIAN MANDYCK FEELS FORTUNATE HER SPINAL FRACTURE WAS PICKED UP AND TREATED BEFORE IT WAS TOO LATE. RHONDA ROWLAND, CNN, ATLANTA. MAGINNIS: IN DECIDING WHICH OSTEOPOROSIS TREATMENT IS RIGHT FOR YOU, YOUR DOCTOR WILL CONSIDER MANY FACTORS, INCLUDING YOUR FAMILY'S MEDICAL HISTORY.

On the basis of several epidemiological studies, 50 it has been established that a rise in OS among clinically normal individuals may promote insulin resistance and the metabolic syndrome. Consumption of dietary AGEs directly influences systemic levels of AGEs and may result in an early rise in OS and inflammation which, if sustained throughout adulthood, may have significant adverse health consequences for the aging population. This hypothesis should be tested in longitudinal studies as well as in large randomized and propecia.

PDI's compensation is earned as a percentage of net factory sales above contractual baselines. To the extent that such baselines are not exceeded, which was the case in 2001, the Company receives no revenue. The Company currently estimates that future revenue will exceed costs associated with the arrangement and therefore no provision for loss is needed. Further, the Company is required to commit a certain level of spending for promotional and selling activities including but not limited to sales force representatives. Such costs could range from .0 million to .0 million per quarter. This sales force assigned to Evista may be used to promote other products, including products covered in other PDI copromotion arrangements which may allow the Company to generate additional revenue to cover the costs of this sales force. 5. PUBLIC OFFERINGS OF COMMON STOCK On January 26, 2000, the Company completed a public offering of 2, 800, 000 shares of common stock at a public offering price per share of .00, yielding net proceeds per share after deducting underwriting discounts of .35 before deducting expenses of the offering ; . Of the shares offered, 1, 399, 312 shares were sold by the Company and 1, 400, 688 shares were sold by certain selling shareholders. In addition, in connection with the exercise of the underwriters' overallotment option, an additional 420, 000 shares were sold to the underwriters on February 1, 2000 on the same terms and conditions 210, 000 shares were sold by the Company and 210, 000 shares were sold by a selling shareholder ; . Net proceeds to the Company after expenses of the offering were approximately .6 million. 6. ACQUISITIONS On May 12, 1999, PDI and TVG signed a definitive agreement pursuant to which PDI acquired 100% of the capital stock of TVG in a merger transaction. In connection with the transaction, PDI issued 1, 256, 882 shares of common stock in exchange for the outstanding shares of TVG. The acquisition has been accounted for as a pooling of interests and, accordingly, all periods presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements prior to 2000 have been restated to include the accounts and operations of TVG.

The nucleotide interacts with a mg + ion and several amino acid side chains drawn in ball-and stick representation. His 122 becomes phosphorylated during catalysis, quenching the fluorescence of Trp 137 nearby. Furthermore, we have an agreement with Eli Lilly to copromote Evista in the U.S. through December 2003. Under the terms of the agreement, we provide a significant number of sales representatives to co-promote Evista to U.S. physicians and only record revenue to the extent we exceed certain contractual baselines. Provisions for losses to be incurred on contracts are recognized in full in the period in which it is determined that a loss will result from a performance of the contractual arrangement. Our consolidated balance sheets reflect various financial instruments including cash and cash equivalents and investments. We do not engage in trading activities or off-balance sheet financial instruments. As a matter of policy, excess cash and deposits are held by major banks or in high quality short-term liquid instruments. We have investments, mainly in equity instruments, that are carried at fair market value. We do not use derivative instruments such as swaps or forward contracts. We apply an asset and liability approach to accounting for income taxes. Deferred tax liabilities and assets are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is recorded if it is more likely than not that a deferred tax asset will not be realized. EFFECT OF NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations, " and SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." Under these new standards, all acquisitions subsequent to June 30, 2001 must be accounted for under the purchase method of accounting, and purchased goodwill is no longer amortized over its useful life. Rather, goodwill will be subject to a periodic impairment test based upon its fair value. We applied the provisions of SFAS 141 to our acquisition of InServe which occurred in September 2001. In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations" "SFAS 143" ; . SFAS 143 establishes accounting standards for recognition and measurement of a liability for the costs of asset retirement obligations. Under SFAS 143, the costs of retiring an asset will be recorded as a liability when the retirement obligation arises, and will be amortized to expense over the life of the asset. In October 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" "SFAS 144" ; . SFAS 144 addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets and discontinued operations. We are currently evaluating the impact of these pronouncements to determine the effect, if any, they may have on the consolidated financial position and results of operations. We are required to adopt these statements effective January 1, 2002 and buy fosamax.

While evista raloxifene ; may help avoid increased risk of breast cancer by blocking estrogen receptors in breast tissues while acting as estrogen in other tissues such as bones, evistas side effects do include increased risk of blood clots, heart attack and stroke, as well as hot flashes.
Note 13: Contingencies We are a party to various legal actions, government investigations, and environmental proceedings. The most significant of these are described below. While it is not possible to determine the outcome of these matters, we believe that, except as specifically noted below, the resolution of all such matters will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position or liquidity, but could possibly be material to our consolidated results of operations in any one accounting period. Patent Litigation We are engaged in the following patent litigation matters brought pursuant to procedures set out in the HatchWaxman Act the Drug Price Competition and Patent Term Restoration Act of 1984 ; : Barr Laboratories, Inc. Barr ; , submitted an Abbreviated New Drug Application ANDA ; in 2002 seeking permission to market a generic version of Evista prior to the expiration of our relevant U.S. patents expiring in 2012-2017 ; and alleging that these patents are invalid, not enforceable, or not infringed. In November 2002, we filed a lawsuit against Barr in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Indiana, seeking a ruling that these patents are valid, enforceable, and being infringed by Barr. Teva has also submitted an ANDA seeking permission to market a generic version of Evista. In June 2006, we filed a similar lawsuit against Teva in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Indiana. The lawsuit against Teva is currently scheduled for trial beginning March 9, 2009, while no trial date has been set in the lawsuit against Barr. We believe that Barr's and Teva's claims are without merit and we expect to prevail. However, it is not possible to determine the outcome of this litigation, and accordingly, we can provide no assurance that we will prevail. An unfavorable outcome could have a material adverse impact on our consolidated results of operations, liquidity, and financial position. Sicor Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Sicor ; , Mayne Pharma USA ; Inc. Mayne ; , and Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Inc. Sun ; each submitted ANDAs seeking permission to market generic versions of Gemzar prior to the expiration of our relevant U.S. patents compound patent expiring in 2010 and method-of-use patent expiring in 2013 ; , and alleging that these patents are invalid. We filed lawsuits in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Indiana against Sicor February 2006 ; and Mayne October 2006 ; , seeking rulings that these patents are valid and are being infringed. In November 2007, the lawsuit against Mayne was stayed and administratively closed by the court. Also in November 2007, Sun filed a declaratory judgment action in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan, seeking a ruling that our method-of-use patent is invalid or unenforceable, or would not be infringed by the sale of Sun's generic product. Sun informed us in December 2007 that it is also challenging our compound patent, and that patent has now been added to the declaratory judgment action. In January 2008, we filed a second lawsuit against Mayne in response to a second ANDA filed by Mayne for a new dosage strength. We expect to prevail in this litigation and believe that these claims are without merit. However, it is not possible to determine the outcome of this litigation, and accordingly, we can provide no assurance that we will prevail. An unfavorable outcome could have a material adverse impact on our consolidated results of operations, liquidity, and financial position. Actavis Elizabeth LLC Actavis ; , Glenmark Pharmaceuticals Inc., USA Glenmark ; , Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Limited Sun ; , Sandoz Inc. Sandoz ; , Mylan Pharmaceuticals Inc. Mylan ; , Teva Pharmaceuticals USA, Inc. Teva ; , Apotex Inc. Apotex ; , Aurobindo Pharma Ltd. Aurobindo ; , Synthon Laboratories, Inc. Synthon ; , and Zydus Pharmaceuticals, USA, Inc. Zydus ; each submitted an ANDA seeking permission to market generic versions of Strattera prior to the expiration of our relevant U.S. patent expiring in 2017 ; , and alleging that this patent is invalid. We filed a lawsuit against Actavis in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey in August 2007. Sandoz filed a declaratory judgment action in the same court, but its case has been dismissed. In September 2007, we amended the complaint in the New Jersey lawsuit to add Glenmark, Sun, Sandoz, Mylan, Teva, Apotex, Aurobindo, Synthon, and Zydus as defendants. We filed a second action against Synthon in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia. Synthon has filed a motion to dismiss our lawsuit in New Jersey. In December 2007, Zydus agreed to entry of a consent judgment in which Zydus conceded the validity and enforceability of the patent and agreed to a permanent injunction. We expect to prevail in this litigation and believe that these claims are without merit. However, it is not possible to determine the outcome of this litigation, and accordingly, we can provide no assurance that we will prevail. An unfavorable outcome could have a material adverse impact on our consolidated results of operations, liquidity, and financial position. We have received challenges to Zyprexa patents in a number of countries outside the U.S.: In Canada, several generic pharmaceutical manufacturers have challenged the validity of our Zyprexa compound and method-of-use patent expiring in 2011 ; . In April 2007, the Canadian Federal Court ruled against the first. Some - older - heuristic rules do not even make use of semantic tags, but exploit syntactic clues with a semantic correlation. The preposition 'com', for example, is more likely to be ADVL, if it heads an "instrumental" PP, but more likely to be N.

U.S. Customs seized nearly 53, 500 grams of raw opium in 1998 at the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport in mail parcels destined for Alaska.

Evista prescription information

Axit can be taken with or without food. It is preferable to take the tablet at night-time, before going to bed. If you are advised by the doctor to divide the daily dose, Axit should be taken half in the morning and half at night-time before going to bed. Take your medicine at about the same time each day. Taking it at the same time each day will have the best effect. It will also help you remember when to take it. Et al. 1978 ; was used to mimic the peripheral actions of cocaine. The lack of CNS actions of cocaine methiodide was verified by bioassay. In mice, cocaine methiodide was devoid of locomotor stimulatory actions Witkin and Katz 1991 ; and did not fully reproduce the discriminative stimulus effects of cocaine in rats Witkin et al. 1991a ; . In contrast, lethal effects of cocaine and cocaine methiodide showed a relative potency close to one with parallel dose-response curves suggesting comparable mechanisms of action. Doses of the D1 antagonists about two orders of magnitude lower than those effective against cocaine lethality were effective in preventing death from cocaine methiodide; haloperidol did not alter the lethal effects of cocaine methiodide despite complete protection against convulsions at neuroleptic doses of haloperidol Witkin and Katz 1991 ; . These data suggest that peripheral mechanisms significantly contribute to cocaine lethality. The mechanism by which D1 antagonists protect against the peripheral manifestations of cocaine toxicity cocaine methiodide ; or the combined peripheral central actions of cocaine are not known. Wilkerson 1988 ; and Tella and colleagues 1990 ; have provided evidence to suggest that the cardiovascular effects of cocaine are controlled by both central and peripheral actions and that some of these peripheral effects of cocaine may be centrally driven. The discovery of a peripherally acting, selective D1 antagonist would be a useful research tool in this regard. Metabolites Cocaine metabolites, although generally thought to be behaviorally inactive, may have toxic actions that act alone or in concert with the parent compound. Benzoylecgonine has been reported to be a potent vasoconstrictor in isolated cat cerebral arteries and to display greater efficacy than cocaine Madden and Powers 1990 ; . The recently identified metabolite of cocaine, cocaine ethyl-ester cocaethylene ; , is formed in liver in the presence of alcohol. Cocaethylene has been associated with emergency room admissions related to cocaine and with cocaine-related deaths Hearn et al. 1991a ; . The pharmacology of cocaethylene appears to be very similar to that of cocaine Hearn et al. 1991a; Jatlow et al. 1991 ; . However, compared with cocaine, cocaethylene is slightly less potent in stimulating locomotor activity in mice and in producing discriminative stimulus effects comparable to cocaine in squirrel monkeys Katz and Witkin, in press ; . The toxicity of cocaethylene, on the other hand, is at least as potent as that of cocaine. The compounds are equipotent in producing clonic convulsions in mice Katz and Witkin, in press ; , whereas cocaethylene is more potent in producing lethality Katz and Witkin, in press; Hearn et al. 1991b ; . Thus, given the high incidence of alcohol use in association with cocaine toxicity Colliver et al., this volume ; , the contribution of cocaethylene to the toxicity of cocaine cannot be ignored. The Study of Raloxifene and Tamoxifen STAR ; is currently in progress at the Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center. STAR began enrolling postmenopausal women at increased risk of breast cancer in July 1999. STAR is designed to determine whether the osteoporosis prevention and treatment drug raloxifene Evista ; is as effective as tamoxifen Nolvadex ; in reducing breast cancer risk. STAR is a study of the National Surgical Adjuvant Breast and Bowel Project and is supported by the National Cancer Institute NCI ; . Since the 1970s, breast cancer research has been a prime focus of the Comprehensive Cancer Center at Wake Forest University. The Breast Center of Excellence, formerly the Breast Cancer Program, strives to provide a comprehensive attack on the breast cancer problem using a multidisciplinary approach involving basic scientists, public health scientists and clinicians. Several studies in the area of breast cancer control are currently underway. A study evaluating the breast cancer screening methods and compliance in the tri-racial, rural population of Western North Carolina was just completed. With funds from the Department of Defense in 1994 and continued funding from the National Cancer Institute NCI ; since 1995, the Carolina Mammography Registry operates through the Radiology Department of UNC-CH. The Registry evaluates the practice of and outcomes from breast cancer screening mammography at the community level. By the end of 1999, nearly 400, 000 records from 85 facilities in 39 counties were in the Registry's database. Ortunately, for many women who relied on hormone replacement therapy to stave off age-related problems, a new age of "designer estrogens" has already dawned. These compounds, called SERMs or selective estrogen receptor modulators, act like estrogen in some ways but not in others. They actually block the effects of natural estrogen that may promote breast cancer. Although they won't prevent specific symptoms of menopause, SERMS appear to outstrip HRT in helping maintain long-term health. Based on past clinical trials of postmenopausal women, the federal Food and Drug Administration has approved one SERM, raloxifene Evista ; , for prevention or treatment of osteoporosis. Two major current trials are now studying possible other health benefits of raloxifene. One of these studies involves 10, 000 women at increased risk of heart disease. By 2006 researchers expect to have results showing whether or not the drug reduces this risk. Early findings suggest the raloxifene can lower "bad, " artery-clogging cholesterol levels lowdensity lipoproteins ; without reducing "good" cholesterol high-density lipoproteins ; . Another important study is STAR--Study of Tamoxifen and Raloxifene. Its goal is to see if raloxifene helps prevent breast cancer as effectively as the drug tamoxifen. Tamoxifen has already been FDAapproved to help reduce breast cancer risk. Both drugs protect against bone loss, although they can cause hot flashes in 10% to 30% of women. STAR aims to enroll about 22, 000 postmenopausal women who are at increased risk of breast cancer. For more information about STAR or how to enroll, call the Cancer Center number on the cover page.
