Cytotam 20mg Tablet contains tamoxifen citrate, a hormone therapy medication used to treat and prevent breast cancer in adults. This medicine works by blocking estrogen's effects on breast cancer cells, helping to slow their growth and spread. Cytotam is also prescribed to treat infertility in women caused by irregular egg production and release. Breast cancer occurs when cells in breast tissue multiply uncontrollably. Tamoxifen citrate is an effective treatment option for estrogen receptor-positive breast cancers at various stages of the disease.
This medication requires careful monitoring and should only be used under a doctor's supervision. It is not suitable for pregnant women or those planning pregnancy, and strict contraception is necessary during treatment and for at least 9 months after stopping the medication. Before starting Cytotam, inform your healthcare provider about any existing uterine conditions, abnormal bleeding, previous blood clots, or stroke history.
Key points
Cytotam 20mg Tablet works as an estrogen blocker by competing with the hormone estrogen for binding sites on estrogen receptors in breast tissue. By occupying these receptors, tamoxifen prevents estrogen from stimulating breast cancer cell growth. This action slows down cancer cell multiplication and reduces the spread of cancer to other areas of the body. In cases of female infertility, tamoxifen helps regulate hormones involved in egg production and ovulation.
Take Cytotam 20mg Tablet exactly as prescribed by your doctor. This medication should be taken daily at the same time each day to maintain consistent hormone levels in your body. Swallow the tablet whole without crushing or chewing it.
