Bone loss and the aromatase inhibitors.
British Journal of Cancer 2005 August

Ongoing clinical trials are favouring the use of the aromatase inhibitors over tamoxifen and this may advocate greater use of these drugs in the future. Strategies for the identification and management of treatment-induced bone loss are currently being defined.
