The doctor prescribes this medicine; hence, it is advisable to follow the prescription. Femistra tablets are taken orally once a day, and they can be taken with or without food as advised by the doctor. Femistra tablet should be taken at the same time every day for maximum benefits. Contact your doctor or any healthcare provider in case of an overdose and seek medical attention immediately.
How It Works
In many breast cancers, estrogen stimulates the uncontrollable growth of cancerous cells. Aromatase enzyme, present mainly in the adrenal glands can convert the androgens to estrogen, and this estrogen furthermore influences the cancerous cells. Thus, Femistra is a non-steroidal inhibitor that competitively binds to the aromatase enzyme and stops the production of estrogen. As a result, it inhibits the growth and spreading of the tumor cells.
