Anastrozole Arimidex 1mg Tablet is an oral medication primarily used to treat hormone receptor-positive breast cancer in postmenopausal women. It belongs to a class of drugs known as aromatase inhibitors, which work by inhibiting the enzyme aromatase, responsible for converting androgens into estrogen. By lowering estrogen levels, Arimidex helps prevent the growth and spread of estrogen-dependent cancer cells. Anastrozole Arimidex 1mg Tablet is commonly prescribed as adjuvant therapy after surgery or in metastatic breast cancer. Common side effects include hot flashes, joint pain, fatigue, and bone thinning. Long-term use may require monitoring of bone density and other health parameters.
