Anyone take Anastrozole every other day?

I take it Mon, Wed, Fri, Sat, 4 times a week instead of every other day so easy to remember what day.
Yes, I have mentioned this to my oncologist who doesn't admonish me, but probably not happy about flouting the recommended dosing.
Careful that halving a pill not always good unless there is a demarcation line on the pill, from what I understand.

@cashemire I do too. I take it every other day. My oncologist is happy that I did not give up as I had severe side effects and tried the other formulations too (like Letrozole). She felt that if this worked for me and that I could do this schedule for 5+ years then she was fine with it.
