What is the original use of raloxifene? - davidbrownm05 - 10-09-2024
Raloxifene was originally developed as a potential treatment for breast cancer.** It was designed to act like estrogen in some tissues, such as bone, but to block the effects of estrogen in others, like breast tissue. However, while it showed promise in reducing the risk of breast cancer in postmenopausal women, it didn't meet the primary endpoint of the clinical trials. If you want some better cure then must try raloxifene 60 mg tablet
Today, raloxifene is primarily used to:
Treat osteoporosis: It helps to increase bone density and reduce the risk of fractures in postmenopausal women.
Reduce the risk of breast cancer:** While it didn't meet the original goal of preventing breast cancer, it can still lower the risk in certain women.
