Letrozole is an aromatase inhibitor used to treat estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) breast cancer, primarily in postmenopausal women. It works by inhibiting the enzyme aromatase, which is responsible for converting androgens into estrogen. Lowering estrogen levels helps slow or stop the growth of hormone-sensitive breast cancer cells.
Uses:
- Treatment: For early and advanced-stage ER+ breast cancer in postmenopausal women.
- Prevention: To reduce the risk of recurrence in women who have completed initial breast cancer treatment.
Common Side Effects:
- Hot flashes
- Joint pain
- Fatigue
- Bone thinning (osteoporosis)
- Nausea
Letrozole is typically taken orally once daily, and it's often used as part of long-term treatment plans for breast cancer.

What is Letrozole used for?
Letrozole is primarily used to treat estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) breast cancer in postmenopausal women. It is used both in the treatment of early-stage and advanced breast cancer, and to reduce the risk of cancer recurrence. It may also be used as part of hormone therapy after surgery or radiation.
How does Letrozole work?
Letrozole works by inhibiting the enzyme aromatase, which is responsible for converting androgens (a type of male hormone) into estrogen. Since estrogen can fuel the growth of some types of breast cancer, reducing its levels helps slow or stop the growth of these cancer cells.
How should Letrozole be taken?
Letrozole is taken orally, usually as a tablet once a day, with or without food. It's important to take it at the same time each day to maintain consistent blood levels of the medication. The treatment course can last for several years, depending on the patient's individual treatment plan.
Can Letrozole cause bone loss?
Yes, Letrozole can reduce estrogen levels, which may lead to bone thinning (osteoporosis) over time. Regular monitoring of bone health and preventive measures such as calcium and vitamin D supplementation may be recommended.
How long do I need to take Letrozole?
Treatment with Letrozole typically lasts for 5-10 years, depending on the type and stage of breast cancer and the doctor's recommendation. The medication is often continued after surgery and other treatments to reduce the risk of recurrence.
Can Letrozole be taken during pregnancy?
Letrozole is not recommended during pregnancy because it can harm a developing fetus. Women should avoid becoming pregnant while taking Letrozole and should use effective contraception during treatment.
