Letrozole and Palbociclib

Hello. My wife of 77 years has been taking these two drugs for 5.5 years. They have stopped the Cancer returning. Over the last 6/9 months she has developed ‘brain fog’ type symptoms and short term memory loss. Neither are age related. I have discovered that long term use of Lettozole can impair cognitive function and I was wondering if anyone else has experienced similar side effects and what if any action or steps were taken to help.

Thank you

Yes and it was part of the reason I came off Letrozale after 3 months. Most people now only seem to take Letrozole for 5 years so she may be allowed to come off it now. Best to contact her oncology team.
