Anastrozole Tablets USP

ANASTROZOLE belongs to the group of anti-cancer medicines called aromatase inhibitors. ANASTROZOLE is used to treat breast cancer in women who have gone through menopause (cessation of periods). Breast cancer is a type of cancer that develops in breast cells stimulated by a female sex hormone called estrogen. ANASTROZOLE works by blocking the aromatase enzyme, which is involved in the production of estrogens. The cancer cells require estrogen for their growth, so blocking the enzyme ANASTROZOLE prevents cancer cell’s growth. Thereby, ANASTROZOLE helps slow down or stop the growth and/or spreading the tumors to other body parts.
