What is Cytotam?
Cytotam can help interfere with the effects of estrogen in the breast tissue. The active ingredient tamoxifen citrate belongs to a group of medications called anti-oestrogen hormone antagonists. It can be used alone or in combination with radiation, chemotherapy or surgery to treat metastatic breast cancer. Women with a family history of breast cancer carry a higher risk of breast cancer. Women with a high risk of breast cancer may use the medication to lower the chance of developing breast cancer.

How is Cytotam used?
Cytotam should be taken as directed by a doctor, usually 1 to 2 times per day for as long as 5 years. The medication can be taken with or without food but should be taken with some water. Contact a doctor for the correct length of treatment and dosage as it will depend on the condition of the patient and their response to the therapy. It is recommended to take the tablets whole and not chewed, crushed or split.
