How it works:
Tamoxifen blocks oestrogen receptors in breast tissue, inhibiting the growth of hormone-dependent cancer cells. It significantly reduces recurrence risk and improves long-term outcomes in breast cancer patients.
Recommended for:
Women with oestrogen receptor-positive (ER+) breast cancer
As adjuvant therapy after surgery to prevent recurrence
Men with breast cancer
Off-label: Women with infertility due to anovulation
Under strict medical supervision
Treatment and prevention of oestrogen-dependent breast cancer
Metastatic breast cancer
