   Purpose, Prevention & Protection

   • I know raloxifene protects bone in women after menopause; it is a SERM, not estrogen.
   • I know it lowers my risk of spine fractures but has not been shown to lower my risk of hip fractures.
   • I know it may lower the risk of some invasive breast cancers, but it does not treat breast cancer or prevent every type.
   • I told my provider about blood clots, stroke or TIA, irregular heartbeat, heart disease, smoking, kidney or liver problems, pregnancy, or breastfeedi
