About This Medicine

Product description & overview

Xtane Tablet contains Exemestane 25 mg, a potent irreversible aromatase inhibitor used primarily in the treatment of hormone receptor-positive breast cancer in postmenopausal women. By selectively inhibiting the aromatase enzyme, Xtane reduces peripheral estrogen synthesis, thereby lowering circulating estrogen levels that can promote the growth of estrogen-dependent breast cancer cells. This medication is indicated for adjuvant treatment following surgery and/or radiotherapy in early breast cancer and for advanced or metastatic breast cancer in postmenopausal patients. Xtane is administered orally, typically once daily after a meal to enhance absorption. Common adverse effects may include hot flashes, fatigue, headache, joint pain, and increased sweating, while serious side effects are rare but may involve bone density reduction, necessitating periodic monitoring of bone health during prolonged therapy. Patients with hypersensitivity to exemestane or any component of the tablet should avoid use. Caution is advised in individuals with hepatic impairment. Xtane should be used under strict medical supervision with regular follow-up to assess therapeutic response and manage potential side effects. It is contraindicated in premenopausal women and during pregnancy or lactation due to potential harm to the fetus or infant.

About Exemestane

Exemestane is an aromatase inhibitor used in the treatment of hormone receptor-positive breast cancer in postmenopausal women. It works by blocking the aromatase enzyme, which converts androgens to estrogens, thereby lowering estrogen levels in the body. This reduction in estrogen helps prevent the growth of estrogen-dependent tumors. In summary, Exemestane is effective in treating certain types of breast cancer.

How It Works

Exemestane irreversibly inhibits aromatase, reducing estrogen production and thereby slowing the growth of estrogen-sensitive tumors.
