Letrozole (Femara) -2.5mg/50count - RABYD

Letrozole, also known by its brand name Femara, is a medication primarily used to treat hormone receptor-positive breast cancer in postmenopausal women. Here are some key benefits:

• Reduces Estrogen Levels: Letrozole works by inhibiting the enzyme aromatase, which converts androgens into estrogens. Lowering estrogen levels helps slow or stop the growth of certain types of breast cancer1.

• Prevents Cancer Recurrence: Studies have shown that letrozole can reduce the risk of breast cancer recurrence more effectively than other treatments like tamoxifen.

• Improves Survival Rates: Women treated with letrozole have shown improved survival rates compared to those treated with other medications.

• Off-Label Use for Fertility: Letrozole is sometimes used off-label to induce ovulation in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), increasing the chances of pregnancy.

• Oral Administration: It is taken orally, making it a convenient and non-invasive treatment option
