Zonalta

Zonalta from Intas contains Endoxifen, an active hormone-blocking medicine used in certain breast cancers and being studied in mood-related conditions. It is a specialist prescription that needs close medical supervision.

• Hormone-receptor positive breast cancer (as advised)
• Conditions where estrogen activity needs to be blocked
• Specialist-directed therapy

Endoxifen is the strong active form of tamoxifen. It blocks estrogen from attaching to cancer cells in the breast, slowing or stopping the growth of hormone-sensitive tumours.

• Hot flushes
• Nausea
• Mood changes
• Menstrual changes
• Tiredness

Tell your doctor about clotting problems, liver issues, pregnancy or plans to conceive, breastfeeding, and all other medicines. Report leg swelling, breathlessness or unusual bleeding right away. Use reliable contraception during treatment.
