Aromasin How to Take

Aromasin (Exemestane) belongs to the group of cancer-fighting medications known as antineoplastics. Aromasin (Exemestane) is often used to treat breast cancers that depend on estrogen for growth and survival. It is used to treat Breast Cancer in women who are past Menopause and who are no longer responding to the beneficial effects of Tamoxifen, another antineoplastic medication. Aromasin (Exemestane) may also be used to treat advanced breast cancer in post-menopausal women who have had the disease continue to grow, even after anti-estrogen treatment.

Aromasin (Exemestane) fights cancer by attaching to and inactivating an enzyme called aromatase. This prevents the aromatase enzyme from supplying the estrogen that allows certain types of breast cancers to grow and survive.

Aromasin (Exemestane) may be available under multiple brand names and/or in several different forms. Any specific brand name of Aromasin (Exemestane) may not be available in all of the forms or approved for all of the conditions discussed here.
