How Ovapic Products work
Letrozole is an aromatase inhibitor. It works by decreasing the amount of estrogen (natural female hormone) produced in the body. This decrease in estrogen can slow down or stop the growth of some breast cancers that need estrogen to grow. In addition, it is also useful in infertility whereby it increases the release of certain hormones to stimulate the release of eggs from the ovaries.
Patient Concerns about Ovapic Products
Frequently asked questions about Ovapic Products
Frequently asked questions about Letrozole
Q. Why have I been prescribed Ovapic Tablet?
Ovapic Tablet is an aromatase inhibitor. It is generally prescribed to treat breast cancer in women who no longer have periods, either due to menopause or after surgery or chemotherapy. It is also used to treat infertility caused due to anovulation (during menstrual cycle egg cell from ovaries is not released).
Q. How does Ovapic Tablet work?
Ovapic Tablet is also known as an anti-estrogen drug. It is called so because it acts by reducing the production of estrogen in your body by blocking the enzyme aromatase, which is responsible for the production of estrogen. Estrogen stimulates the production of certain types of breast cancer in your body. These cancers are called "estrogen-dependent cancers". Reducing the production of estrogen may prevent cancer from growing.
Q. For how long should I take Ovapic Tablet?
If the breast tumor is in the advanced stage or has spread to other parts of the body, it is recommended that you continue taking Ovapic Tablet till the tumor shows progression. In cases where Ovapic Tablet is given after tamoxifen (another anti-estrogen used for breast cancer) or surgery, it should be given for 5 years or until the tumor comes back, whichever is first. It can also be given as a sequential treatment; 2 years of Ovapic Tablet followed by 3 years of tamoxifen.
Q. If I am taking irbesartan to control my blood pressure, can I take Ovapic Tablet?
Yes, you can take irbesartan and Ovapic Tablet together. However, be careful and keep a regular check on your blood pressure since Ovapic Tablet may increase your blood pressure. Consult your doctor in case you have problems controlling your blood pressure.
Q. Does Ovapic Tablet affect vision?
Although it is very uncommon, Ovapic Tablet may cause a cataract. So, if you experience blurred vision or eye irritation, consult your doctor immediately.
Q. My friend who is taking Ovapic Tablet often sweats a lot. Is it because of Ovapic Tablet?
This could be a sign of hot flushes which is a very common side effect of Ovapic Tablet. It happens due to decreased estrogen levels. The frequency of hot flushes reduces once your body adjusts to Ovapic Tablet. However, in some people, the flushes and sweats may continue during the treatment and stop a few months after the treatment finishes. You can consult your doctor who will provide you a remedy if it is very bothersome.
Q. What are the serious side effects of Ovapic Tablet?
The serious side effects do not occur in everyone and very few people experience them. The serious side effects of Ovapic Tablet include stroke, angina, heart attack, blood clotting, cataract, osteoporosis, and severe skin reactions.
