Nolvadex tablets

The summaries of product characteristics for Nolvadex (tamoxifen) 10mg and Nolvadex D 20mg tablets have been updated. The following statement has been added to the interaction with other medicaments section: "As Nolvadex is metabolised by cytochrome P450 3A4, care is required when co-administering with drugs, such as rifampicin, known to induce this enzyme as tamoxifen levels may be reduced. The clinical relevance of this reduction is unknown."
