Raloxifene HCl 60MG
What is Raloxifene Hcl?
Raloxifene HCl is a selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM) used primarily in the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women. By mimicking the effects of estrogen on bone density, it helps to reduce the risk of fractures while simultaneously acting as an estrogen antagonist in breast and uterine tissues, potentially lowering the risk of hormone-driven cancers. It is important to note that Raloxifene does not alleviate menopausal symptoms and may increase the risk of thromboembolic events.Side Effects
- Hot flashes
- Leg cramps
- Swelling of the legs and feet
Warnings
- Increased risk of blood clots, particularly in the legs (deep vein thrombosis) and lungs (pulmonary embolism)
- Should not be used in women who are or may become pregnant
- Not suitable for premenopausal women
- May increase the risk of stroke in postmenopausal women with a history of coronary heart disease or major risk factors for coronary events
- Patients with liver or kidney disease, or significant heart problems, should use with caution
