Nolvadex 10 mg

Nolvadex is nonsteroidal anti-estrogen tablet containing Tamoxifen Citrate, which basically functions as an anti-cancer drug. Tamoxifen Citrate blocks the biological effects of the female estrogen hormone on the development of breast cancer. Nolvadex is prescribed as oral therapy in women as well as men who have developed breast tumors which are dependent on estrogen for their growth and survival in the body. Nolvadex is also recommended as treatment in women who have a higher risk of developing breast cancer to effectively lower the possibility of contracting breast cancer. Nolvadex is suggested as anti-cancer treatment after the completion of surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy to prevent the metastasis of the cancer cells to the other parts of the body and also to lower the chances of the recurrence of tumors.

You should use Nolvadex exactly as recommended by your doctor. Your doctor may suggest a dosage of Nolvadex depending whether Nolvadex are used for the treatment or prevention of breast cancer, the stage of cancer, body weight, other medical conditions, and current medications. Tamoxifen Citrate should be taken once or twice a day with a glass of water, after a meal to avoid indigestion problems. Try to maintain a regular schedule for the medication such that you take Nolvadex at the same time every day, to get the maximum benefit of the medication.
