📋Overview
Tamoxifen is a medication classified as a selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM). It is most commonly associated with the management of hormone receptor-positive breast cancer. Tamoxifen works by interfering with the effects of estrogen in breast tissue, which can help slow or stop the growth of certain cancer cells. It is also sometimes used in other conditions related to abnormal estrogen activity.
