| Summary: | Tamoxifen is one of the most widely prescribed drugs used to prevent the recurrence of breast cancer. A non-steroidal antiestrogen, it has been successful in treating postmenopausal women at nearly all stages of breast cancer. Despite its popularity, however, disturbing questions remain about the use of this drug. |
