What is Cytotam (Tamoxifen Citrate)?

Cytotam contains tamoxifen citrate, an oral non-steroidal anti-estrogen. The Cytotam-20 carton states Tamoxifen Citrate Tablets IP 20 mg, 10 x 10 tablets.

How it works, according to the label: The US label describes tamoxifen as a non-steroidal agent with anti-estrogenic activity on breast tissue, and states that patients whose tumours are estrogen-receptor positive are more likely to benefit.


Indications as Listed in the Reference Label

The current US prescribing information for tamoxifen citrate tablets (DailyMed) lists the following. Indications in India may differ and are defined by the Indian regulator and the Cytotam pack insert.

  • Metastatic breast cancer in women and men
  • Adjuvant treatment of breast cancer in the node-positive and axillary node-negative settings described in the full label
  • Women with ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), following breast surgery and radiation, to reduce the risk of invasive breast cancer
  • Reduction in breast cancer incidence in women at high risk for breast cancer
