Brief Answer:
Icariin 60 reduces effect of aromasin

Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXX,
Thanks for writing in to us.

I have read through your query in detail.
Icariin enhances the action of aromatase enzyme. This may reduce the effect of aromatase inhibitors like aromasin which contains exemestane.

Please discuss in detail with your doctor before taking icariin60 & aromasin together

Hope your query is answered.
Do write back if you have any doubts.

Regards,
Dr.Vivek
