I don't know what med your taking but studies show that AIs and cdk4/6 inhibitors can have dose reductions without affecting efficacy. AIs like letrozole can be changed to every other day. I take both letrozole and Kisqali. No problems with letrozole, but the cdk4/6 inhibitor Kisqali gave me neutropenia severe enough to reduce dose from 600mg to 400mg and finally 200mg where I still have reduced neutrophils but manageable. I wouldn't dose adjust any med without discussing with your onc but it is doable and certainly better than doing without.

Thank you for your info. Could you give references for the Letrozole studies so that i can show them to my oncologist. I’m prescribed daily Letrozole which complicates my osteoporosis and have to get Zoledronic injections.
