Yes, you can if you are taking this medicine as directed by your doctor. There are no direct contraindications or indications for the use of Lametta (letrozole) in the context of venous circulation problems in the legs, such as chronic venous insufficiency. Lametta is an anti-cancer drug used in postmenopausal women to treat hormone-dependent breast cancer and works by inhibiting aromatase, which leads to a decrease in estrogen biosynthesis.
In the case of problems with venous circulation, especially if there are symptoms of chronic venous insufficiency (e.g. swelling, pain, a feeling of heaviness in the legs), the basic treatment methods are primarily:
- Compression therapy (the use of stockings or tourniquets), which improves blood and lymph flow in the legs and reduces swelling.
- Lifestyle modifications such as regular exercise, avoiding prolonged standing or sitting, leg lifts, weight management.
In the case of problems with venous circulation, you should consult a specialist doctor (e.g. phlebologist), who will select the appropriate treatment and advise you whether Lametta is safe and indicated in your individual case.
