Abstract
Selective estrogen receptor (ER) modulators (SERMs) are a class of nonsteroidal compounds that interact with ERs, each with a distinct tissue-specific profile. Depending upon the degree of ER agonism/antagonism at the target tissue, SERMs show efficacy for various indications including osteoporosis, dyspareunia, and breast cancer, and are associated with safety risks.
