Trying to separate three different claims about tamoxifen: that it is the right molecule, that it is the right dose, and that it does something useful.
Vivid dreams and mild headache for the first 5 days, then nothing. Textbook for this class, apparently.
What surprised me is how much of the perceived benefit was routine and attention rather than pharmacology.
Curious whether the popular dose has any basis or is just the convenient one.
Same here.
Not on tamoxifen but the pattern is familiar.
Narrow conclusion.
Baseline first. Without a baseline the after picture is decoration.
Is a baseline blood test really necessary before starting something like this?
Read the methods section. It is the only part that says whether the conclusion is allowed to exist.
