Uses & Benefits
Medical applications
Letfem Tablet contains Letrozole 2.5 mg, a non-steroidal aromatase inhibitor indicated primarily for the treatment of hormone receptor-positive breast cancer in postmenopausal women. By selectively inhibiting the aromatase enzyme, Letrozole reduces peripheral estrogen synthesis, thereby lowering circulating estrogen levels that can stimulate the growth of estrogen-dependent breast cancer cells.
