FEMARA® (letrozole tablets)
Arimidex Anastrozole (®)
Aromasin® (exemestane tablets)
I went to a lecture that compared the three and Basically Femara and Arimedex are the same chemical makeup they are just made by different manufactures. Note that the clinical name ends the same way. Aromasin is new and it is different. Note it has a unique chemical makeup and ends differently. Clinical trials are ongoing to determine which is really a better product.
