Aromasin Information

medically reviewed by Dr. HaVy Ngo, Pharmacist on May 27, 2025.

Aromasin and Exemestane at CanadaPharmacyOnline.com

Brand Aromasin (exemestane), manufactured by Pfizer, is available in Canada.

Generic exemestane is sourced from manufacturers that meet applicable regulatory standards. The specific manufacturer of your dispensed medication may vary.

Important Information about Generic Exemestane:

Generic exemestane contains the same active ingredient as the brand-name Aromasin. It is required to meet the same safety, effectiveness, and quality standards.

This means it is designed to work in the same way as Aromasin. Studies have demonstrated bioequivalence between generic and brand-name exemestane, meaning they have comparable absorption rates and overall effects. However, individual responses to any medication can vary. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist if you have questions about using generic exemestane.

For more information about generic drug approval and bioequivalence, you can visit the FDA website: https://www.fda.gov/drugs/buying-using-medicine-safely/generic-drugs

Dosage:

Brand Aromasin and generic exemestane are commonly available in 25 mg tablets at this pharmacy.

Your doctor will determine the appropriate dose based on your needs and medical condition.

Usage:

Aromasin (exemestane) is a prescription medication primarily used to treat hormone-receptor-positive early breast cancer in postmenopausal women, typically after 2 to 3 years of treatment with tamoxifen. It is also used to treat advanced breast cancer in postmenopausal women whose cancer has progressed after anti-estrogen therapy.

For more information, please refer to the National Cancer Institute: https://www.cancer.gov/about-cancer/treatment/drugs/exemestane

Mechanism of Action:
Exemestane is an aromatase inhibitor. It blocks an enzyme called aromatase, which the body uses to make estrogen. By reducing the amount of estrogen in the body, exemestane can help to slow or stop the growth of hormone-receptor-positive breast cancer cells that need estrogen to grow.

Take Aromasin exactly as your doctor prescribes, following the instructions in the patient information leaflet. Consult your doctor for personalized guidance and safe use.
