Usage:Usage:Fulvestrant (pronounced full-vest-rant) is a type of hormone treatment. It is also called Faslodex. It is a treatment for post menopausal women with advanced breast cancer
Description:
Faslodex (fulvestrant) is an anti-estrogen medication. It works by blocking the actions of estrogen in the body. Certain types of breast cancer use estrogen to grow and multiply in the body.
Faslodex is used to treat some hormone-related breast cancer. Faslodex is also used in postmenopausal women whose breast cancer has progressed after treatment with other anti-estrogen medication.
Faslodex may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide.
Applications:
Many breast cancers are stimulated to grow by the female sex hormones oestrogen and progesterone. These breast cancers are called hormone sensitive or hormone receptor positive. Drugs that block the effects of these hormones can slow or stop the growth of the breast cancer cells. Fulvestrant stops oestrogen getting to the cancer cells by blocking oestrogen receptors and reducing the number of receptors the cancer cell has.
