About
Letall 2.5mg is an anti-cancer medication classified as an aromatase inhibitor. It is used as a supportive or first-line treatment for postmenopausal women with early or advanced hormone receptor-positive breast cancer. Estrogen is known to promote the growth of certain types of breast cancer, and Letall works by inhibiting the aromatase enzyme, which is responsible for estrogen production. By lowering estrogen levels, the medication helps slow down or stop the growth and spread of cancer cells.
Before starting treatment, inform your doctor if you are not yet postmenopausal, as Letall is not effective in premenopausal women and may affect fertility. Because it reduces reproductive hormone levels, it is not recommended for women who are still menstruating.
Letall 2.5mg may also raise cholesterol levels, so regular monitoring is advised. Additionally, it can reduce bone mineral density, increasing the risk of bone-related issues. Speak with your doctor about monitoring your bone health during treatment. Women should use reliable contraception during therapy and for at least 3 weeks after the final dose to avoid pregnancy.
