I am seeing my MO tomorrow and will be discussing which AI I should take. My health plan will allow me to use name brand and I met my deductible in January! Is there an advantage to taking the name brand - possibly less fillers or less side effects? If generic which are the ones board members are most satisfied with? I've read Teva for Anastrozole and Roxane for Letrozol. Not sure what people recommend for Aromasin. Thank you for your help!

    I started with Femara before it was available as the generitic letrozole. In the years since it became available as genertic, though O have had different manufacturer letrozole and can't say I have had any problems with any of them. But - we are each unique!
