DOSAGE
_Adults _
_TREATMENT OF BREAST CANCER _
The initial dose is 20 mg once daily. In advanced breast cancer, if no
response is seen, dosage
may be increased to 40 mg once daily.
_PRIMARY REDUCTION OF BREAST CANCER RISK _
The recommended maximum dose is 20 mg daily for 5 years. There are
insufficient data to
support a higher dose or longer period of use.
An assessment of the potential benefits and risks prior to starting
therapy for reduction in breast
cancer risk is essential. Validated algorithms are available that
calculate breast cancer risk
based on features such as age, family history, genetic factors,
reproductive factors, and history
of breast disease.
