Xtane Tablet is classified as an aromatase inhibitor, a type of medication primarily used in the treatment of breast cancer specifically in women who have gone through menopause. It effectively works by adjusting the body’s estrogen levels, thereby helping to significantly slow down the growth and progression of cancer cells.

Xtane Tablet is also frequently used in combination with other medications during the early stages of cancer to help prevent the risk of its recurrence. It should ideally be taken with food, and it is most beneficial to take it at the same time every day to ensure you receive the maximum therapeutic benefit. This medication should be taken precisely as advised by your doctor. The specific dose and how often you need to take it will depend entirely on what you are being treated for. Your doctor will carefully determine the exact amount you need to effectively improve your symptoms. You should swallow the tablets whole with a drink of water, and it is important to continue taking this medicine for as long as it has been prescribed for you.

The most common side effects associated with this medicine include insomnia (difficulty sleeping), headache, nausea, an increased appetite, and joint pain. If any of these side effects bother you significantly, or if they appear to be serious, you should immediately let your doctor know. There may be effective ways of reducing or preventing these symptoms.

Before commencing treatment with this medicine, it is vital to tell your doctor if you have not yet gone through menopause and are still experiencing menstrual periods, or if you have any pre-existing problems with your liver or kidneys. Your doctor should also be fully informed about all other medicines you are currently taking, as many of these may potentially make this medicine less effective or alter the way it works in your body. It is also crucial to tell your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Your doctor may perform some blood tests to check for your vitamin D level or assess your bone density during treatment.

Breast cancer

Xtane 25mg functions by effectively inhibiting the enzyme aromatase, which plays a pivotal role in the body's natural processes. This enzyme is specifically responsible for the crucial conversion of androgens, often referred to as male hormones, into estrogen, which are female hormones. By precisely inhibiting aromatase, Xtane 25mg significantly reduces the overall levels of estrogen in the body. This reduction in estrogen is critical because it can effectively stop or substantially reduce the growth of various types of hormone-sensitive breast cancer cells, which are inherently dependent on estrogen for their proliferation.

It is absolutely crucial to ensure your healthcare provider is fully aware of all the medicines you are currently taking or have taken recently. This comprehensive disclosure must encompass prescribed medications, over-the-counter (OTC) medicines, any nutritional or vitamin supplements, and all herbal products. This detailed information is vital because certain medications, such as Rifampicin, Carbamazepine, or phenytoin, and even the herbal product St. John's Wort, have the potential to interact adversely with Xtane 25mg, which could reduce its effectiveness or lead to undesirable side effects.

You should swallow the tablet whole with a drink of water, ensuring it is not altered before consumption. The usual recommended dose for this medication is one tablet to be taken daily. It is essential that you avoid chewing, breaking, or crushing it. Your physician will carefully choose the precise dosage and the appropriate administration frequency for your treatment, as these parameters are determined based on your specific medical condition and can indeed differ significantly for each individual person.
