Resumo

Exemestane works by lowering estrogen levels in postmenopausal women with hormone-sensitive breast cancer. Giving an estrogen-containing contraceptive at the same time supplies exogenous estrogen and can counteract the intended therapeutic effect. The pairing is also not appropriate in a patient with estrogen-dependent tumor.

O que esta interação significa em palavras simples

Ethinyl estradiol-drospirenone and Exemestane can interact in a way that may be serious. Using them together is sometimes necessary, but it needs a deliberate decision by the prescriber, a plan for monitoring, and clear advice on the warning signs to watch for.
