Conditions treated by raloxifene
Raloxifene is primarily used for the treatment and prevention of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women (after menopause). Osteoporosis causes an increased risk for bone fractures. Raloxifene can also reduce the risk of invasive breast cancer and increase bone mineral density in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis or at high risk for breast cancer.
How does raloxifene work?
Raloxifene is a selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM), with an estrogen-agonistic effect. It acts by binding to estrogen receptors in certain tissues, mimicking the beneficial effects of estrogen on bone density, while blocking the negative effects on the breast and uterus. This helps to prevent bone loss and reduce the risk of breast cancer.
Forms of raloxifene available
Raloxifene is available in oral tablet form.

The dosage of raloxifene may vary depending on the specific condition being treated and individual patient factors. It is important to follow the recommended dosage instructions provided by the healthcare provider.
