What is exemestane used for?
exemestane is an aromatase inhibitor and is used for the following:
Early breast cancer in postmenopausal women who’ve had 2 to 3 years of treatment with tamoxifen

How does exemestane work?
exemestane is an aromatase inhibitor. Aromatase is a protein in your body that helps convert other hormones into estrogen. By blocking aromatase, exemestane lowers the amount of estrogen in your body. Estrogen can fuel the growth of certain types of breast cancer cells. Without estrogen, cancer cells won’t have the “fuel” they need to grow or spread.
How do I take exemestane?
The typical dose is 25 mg taken by mouth once daily after a meal. This dose might differ if you’re taking medications that might interact with exemestane.
