Aromasin Information:

Aromasin (Exemestane) is an aromatase inhibitor used to treat some types of breast cancer in postmenopausal women. Aromasin may also be used to treat other conditions as determined by your doctor.

Aromasin (exemestane tablets) is used for advanced breast cancer. It is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to treat women who have gone through menopause and whose cancer has progressed after taking tamoxifen. Aromasin prevents estrogen from being made. In contrast, tamoxifen does not stop the body from making estrogen. Rather, it blocks estrogen itself on the cancer cell to prevent cancer growth.
