The drug is also indicated in treating advanced stages of breast cancer in post-menopausal women where the cancer is domiciliary after being treated with tamoxifen. The intake of Exemestane when treated with a strong CYP 3A4 inducer such as Rifampicin or Phenytoin is not very useful and it greatly reduces the effects of Exemestane. Such patients should be prescribed 50 mg doses taken daily after meals for maximum increased absorption.The most common side effects of Exemestane 25 mg tablets are nausea, arthralgia, hot flashes, increased appetite, fatigue, headache, insomnia, and increased sweating.
