Product Description
Tamoxifen Citrate
Advised for an early breast cancer treatment in women who have already been treated with surgery, radiation, and/or chemotherapy. This Tamoxifen Citrate reduces the risk of developing a more serious type of breast cancer in women who have had ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS; a type of breast cancer that does not spread outside of the milk duct where it forms) and who have been treated with surgery and radiation.
Advantages:
- Reduce the risk of breast cancer in women who are at high risk for the disease due to their age, personal medical history, and family medical history
- Tamoxifen is in a class of medications known as antiestrogens
- It blocks the activity of estrogen (a female hormone) in the breast. This may stop the growth of some breast tumors that need estrogen to grow
How to Use:
- Tamoxifen is usually taken once or twice a day with or without food. Take tamoxifen at around the same time(s) every day
- Follow the directions on your prescription label carefully, and ask your doctor or pharmacist to explain anything you do not understand. Take tamoxifen exactly as directed
- Do not take more or less of it or take it more often than prescribed by your doctor
- Swallow tamoxifen tablets whole; do not split, chew, or crush them. Swallow the tablets with water or any other nonalcoholic drink
- If you are taking tamoxifen to prevent breast cancer, you will probably take it for five years
- If you are taking tamoxifen to treat breast cancer, your doctor will decide how long your treatment will last
- Do not stop taking tamoxifen without talking to your doctor
