Having had breast cancer, and trying Femara for a month, I find that the cost is prohibitive right now. It's been 9 years now, and I am careful. I check regularly. When and if the cost were to come down from $300 a month I might consider it again.

After chemo and herceptin for a year They also put me on Arimidex. With my insurance it is $83.00 a month, up $8 bucks from my last refill.
