Levormeloxifene

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Levormeloxifene is a selective estrogen receptor modulator that was developed as an alternative to estrogen replacement therapy for the treatment and prevention of postmenopausal bone loss. The development was stopped because of a high incidence of gynaecologic adverse events during clinical trials.
