What is Exemestane?
Active Ingredients: Exemestane
Exemestane Tablets are an antineoplastic drug used to treat certain types of breast cancer. It is typically used for the treatment of breast cancer in postmenopausal women who need particularly aggressive therapy. Exemestane is also indicated for patients whose first-line defenses, such as tamoxifen, have not worked.
Exemestane is a steroidal aromatase inhibitor. It is used in the adjuvant treatment of hormonally responsive breast cancer. The active ingredient lowers estrogen production in the body by blocking the aromatase enzyme, which is the enzyme responsible for estrogen synthesis.
