Coming back to your question, if you want to treat/control your HBP (Cartia XT) it is of crucial importance that you take it as prescribed by your DR., and the same goes for Evista and preventing:
"Evista affects the cycle of bone formation and breakdown in the body, and reduces loss of bone tissue.
Evista is used to treat or prevent osteoporosis in postmenopausal women. Evista is also used to reduce the risk of invasive breast cancer in postmenopausal women who have osteoporosis or who are otherwise at risk of invasive breast cancer.
Evista is not a cancer medication and will not treat breast cancer."

So, it is vital you take your meds, if you feel uneasy, do contact your DR. or his/her nurse in order to clarify your apprehensions, before the weekend.
