Ach Letrozole How to Take

Letrozole belongs to the group of cancer-fighting medications known as antineoplastics, and specifically to the type of antineoplastics known as nonsteroidal aromatase inhibitor.

Letrozole can be used after surgery to treat postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive early Breast Cancer, including those who have received approximately 5 years of Tamoxifen therapy. Letrozole can also be used to treat postmenopausal women with advanced breast cancer. It can also be used to treat women who have gone through natural or artificially induced Menopause who have breast cancer that has spread to other parts of the body and whose cancer has progressed following anti-estrogen therapy.

Letrozole fights breast cancer by inactivating an enzyme known as aromatase. This prevents the enzyme from supplying the estrogen that allows certain types of breast cancers to grow and survive.

Ach Letrozole Warnings

Before you begin taking a medication, be sure to inform your doctor of any medical conditions or Allergies you may have, any medications you are taking, whether you are pregnant or breast-feeding, and any other significant facts about your health. These factors may affect how you should take Ach Letrozole.

If you experience any of these symptoms, contact your doctor immediately.

Bone mineral density: Long-term use of letrozole may decrease the density of bones, thereby increasing the risk of Osteoporosis. Your doctor will order bone mineral density tests periodically while you are taking letrozole.

Cholesterol: Letrozole may increase cholesterol levels.
