Nolvadex or _____________ is an anti-estrogen type of medication that is often used in the treatment of breast cancer.

Albuterol

Tamoxifen

Tamoxifen is the correct answer because it is the only anti-estrogen type of medication listed. Albuterol is a bronchodilator, phenytoin is an anticonvulsant, and nifedipine is a calcium channel blocker - none of which are used for treating breast cancer. While they may all have potential uses in certain medical conditions, they are not considered anti-estrogens like Tamoxifen is. Therefore, they would not be appropriate choices in this scenario.
