Hello,
Exemestane is not known for any special effects on the lungs. It gives tiredness and fatigue, hair loss anxiety, depression etc. You should get used to it because you can't stop it since it is used to prevent breast cancer.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
