Tamoxifen 40

Tamoxifen overview
Tamoxifen is a prescription drug used to treat breast cancer and reduce the chance of developing breast cancer. Some types of breast cancer need estrogen to grow. Tamoxifen belongs to a group of drugs called anti-estrogens, which can block the effects of estrogen, slowing the growth of cancer cells.

This drug comes in a tablet and an oral solution and is usually taken once or twice a day.

Side effects of tamoxifen include hot flashes and vaginal discharge.

Tamoxifen genetic information

Breast cancer is cancer that forms in the cells of the breast. The development of breast cancer is closely related to the amount of estrogen the breasts are exposed to over time. Some women have hormone receptor positive (ER / PR +) breast cancer. Estrogen receptors are proteins found on the surface of cells. Cancer cells grow in response to estrogen binding to these receptors. Tamoxifen reduces the amount of estrogen in the blood by limiting the amount of estrogen available to bind to these receptors. This slows or stops the growth of cancer cells.

Hormone receptor testing is done to determine how likely tamoxifen is to be an effective treatment. Patients who do not have hormone receptor positive breast cancer are unlikely to respond to tamoxifen treatment.
