Elacestrant is a selective estrogen receptor degrader (SERD) indicated for ER /HER2breast cancer. It works by breaking down ER signaling. You can get this drug in two forms – 86 mg and 345 mg tablets with a coating.
The usual dose is 345 mg, taken every day with some food. The drug comes in bottles, each holding 30 tablets. How it works is by getting rid of the estrogen receptor, which messes up the estrogen signal in breast cancer cells.
This can be a big deal because it often helps cancer grow. The pill is meant to be swallowed, and what you eat can affect how well it works. That’s why it’s super important to take it as directed.
They’ve made the pill, the way it’s packed, and how much to take so that people will take it right and it’ll do its job.
