Femara Description
What is Femara?
Femara is the brand name for letrozole. It is a prescription medicine used mainly to treat certain breast cancers in postmenopausal women. It belongs to a group called aromatase inhibitors. By lowering estrogen levels, it can slow or stop the growth of hormone sensitive tumours. In Australia, Femara is supplied by licensed pharmacies, including online stores, with a doctor’s prescription. Always check that the product has clear labeling and a batch number. Read the safety notes from the pharmacist when you receive the medicine.
Who may use Femara?
Most often it is used after surgery or with other therapies for hormone receptor positive breast cancer in postmenopausal patients. It can also be prescribed for metastatic disease when other treatments are not suitable. Some doctors may use it for fertility workups in select cases under specialist care. This use is not routine and requires careful supervision. Do not use Femara if you are pregnant or planning pregnancy. It may harm an unborn baby. If you are breastfeeding, do not take it. In Australia, read the patient leaflet and talk to your clinician about risks and benefits.
How to take Femara
The usual cancer dose is 2.5 mg once daily. The exact length of treatment is decided by your doctor. Take it at roughly the same time every day. You may take it with food or on an empty stomach. Swallow the tablet whole with water. Do not crush or chew. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember, unless it is nearly time for the next dose. Do not double dose. Do not stop the medicine without talking to your doctor. When buying online, ensure you follow the dosing instructions from your prescription and pharmacist.
Side effects and safety
Common side effects are hot flashes, night sweats, fatigue, joint or muscle pain, headaches and nausea. Some people notice dizziness or swelling in the ankles. Mood changes or sleep problems can occur. Long term use may reduce bone density, so doctors check bone health and may suggest supplements or exercise. It can raise cholesterol in some patients. Seek urgent care for severe allergic reactions, chest pain, or trouble breathing. Tell your doctor about all medicines you take, since letrozole can interact with other drugs, especially tamoxifen and some antidepressants. Read the information sheet from your online pharmacy for details.
Choosing an online Australian pharmacy
Buy from a registered Australian online pharmacy with a visible pharmacist support line and clear contact details. Confirm that a valid prescription is required and that delivery complies with local rules. Good sites offer discreet packaging and trackable delivery. If you have questions about dosing, side effects or interactions, contact the pharmacist before placing an order. Online services can usually deliver across many Australian states, but check your region and the service terms.
Storage, disposal and tips
Store at room temperature away from moisture and heat. Keep tablets in the original bottle with the label. Do not use after the expiry date. If you stop taking Femara, do not flush it down the toilet; ask your pharmacist about safe disposal. Store out of reach of children. Keep a list of medicines you take and share it with your doctor and pharmacist to avoid interactions. When ordering online, verify the source and keep your prescription safe.
