Carole, I haven't heard about any vitamins interfering with Arimidex. In fact, it helps to take extra vitamin D while taking Arimidex, as Arimidex tends to lower your bone density, while vitamin D helps to build it back up. As for Herceptin, I'd ask your oncologist about contra-indications for anything... Good luck- PJH
