AROMASIN 25mg – DRAGON PHARMA
Product Overview:
Aromasin 25mg by Dragon Pharma contains Exemestane, a potent and effective aromatase inhibitor used primarily in the treatment of breast cancer in postmenopausal women. This pharmaceutical-grade product is presented in a convenient tablet form, each containing 25 mg of the active ingredient, ensuring precise dosage and ease of administration.
Mechanism of Action:
Exemestane belongs to a class of drugs known as aromatase inhibitors. It works by decreasing the amount of estrogen the body makes. This reduction in estrogen levels helps to slow or reverse the growth of hormone-sensitive tumors, particularly in breast cancer cases. Exemestane binds irreversibly to the aromatase enzyme, which is responsible for converting androgens into estrogens, thus leading to a significant reduction in estrogen levels in the body.
Indications:
Aromasin 25mg is primarily indicated for:
- Adjuvant treatment of postmenopausal women with estrogen-receptor positive early breast cancer.
- Treatment of advanced breast cancer in postmenopausal women whose disease has progressed following tamoxifen therapy.
Dosage and Administration:
- Standard Dose: The recommended dose of Aromasin is one 25 mg tablet once daily, after a meal.
- Administration: It is crucial to take the tablet at the same time each day to maintain an even level of the drug in your body.
- Duration: The length of treatment depends on individual response and medical guidance, typically continuing until there is evidence of disease progression.
