Description
Aromasin is a medication primarily used to treat breast cancer in postmenopausal women. Each tablet contains 25 milligrams of the active ingredient, exemestane. Exemestane belongs to a class of medications known as aromatase inhibitors, which work by reducing the amount of estrogen produced in the body. This is particularly important in hormone-receptor-positive breast cancers, where estrogen fuels the growth of cancer cells. Aromasin helps to block the production of estrogen, thus slowing down or stopping the growth of cancer cells. The medication typically comes in a package containing 30 tablets, with each tablet intended for oral administration. It’s important to take Aromasin exactly as prescribed by a healthcare professional and to follow any specific instructions provided with the medication.
