Exemestane GH (Aromasin) 25mg X 30 Tablets

Product Overview

Exemestane GH (Aromasin) 25mg X 30 Tablets, marketed under the brand name Aromasin, is a steroidal aromatase inhibitor used primarily in the treatment of estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer in postmenopausal women. Each tablet contains 25mg of exemestane, and the standard packaging includes 30 tablets.

How It Works

Exemestane binds irreversibly to the aromatase enzyme, preventing the conversion of androgens to estrogens. This reduction in estrogen levels helps slow or halt the growth of estrogen-dependent breast cancer cells.

Usage & Dosage

Exemestane GH should be used under the supervision of a qualified healthcare provider.

• Administration: The recommended dose is one 25mg tablet taken orally once daily, preferably after a meal.
• Duration: For early breast cancer, treatment typically continues until the completion of five years of combined sequential adjuvant hormonal therapy (tamoxifen followed by exemestane). For advanced breast cancer, treatment should continue until tumor progression is evident.

Potential Side Effects

Common side effects may include:

• Hot flashes
• Sweating
• Insomnia
• Headache
• Joint pain
• Nausea
• Fatigue

Occasional decreases in lymphocytes have been observed, particularly in patients with pre-existing lymphopenia.
