Info: Aromasin 25mg, a drug with exemestane, is an aromatase inhibitor used in the treatment of postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive breast cancer. It achieves this by lowering the levels of estrogen in the body thus slowing the growth of cancer cells. Aromasin works by blocking the aromatase enzyme which is required in the synthesis of estrogen from androgens. Even though ovarian estrogen production is low in postmenopausal women, small amounts from other areas may fuel cancer development.
