Exemestane is a steroidal aromatase inhibitor used in the treatment of hormone receptor-positive breast cancer, primarily in postmenopausal women. It reduces the production of estrogen and is approved for use as adjuvant or advanced treatment for breast cancer.
Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic parameters as observed in healthy postmenopausal females after oral administration of a single 25 mg exemestane dose.
