Anastrozole 1mg Tablets, 28 Tablets is a prescription-only medicine used as part of breast cancer treatment in postmenopausal women. Classified as an aromatase inhibitor, Anastrozole works by blocking the enzyme aromatase, which is responsible for producing estrogen. Lowering estrogen levels helps to slow down or stop the growth of hormone-sensitive breast cancer cells.

Doctors often prescribe Anastrozole 1mg as part of long-term hormone therapy for breast cancer. It is also sometimes used to prevent cancer recurrence after surgery, chemotherapy, or radiotherapy.

Anastrozole 1mg is a potent, non-steroidal aromatase inhibitor indicated for the adjuvant treatment of postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive early breast cancer. It is also approved for the first-line treatment of advanced or metastatic hormone receptor-positive breast cancer in postmenopausal women and as second-line therapy following tamoxifen failure.

Each film-coated tablet contains 1mg of anastrozole, formulated for oral administration. The film coating enhances swallowability and ensures precise dosing. Anastrozole functions by selectively inhibiting the aromatase enzyme, thereby significantly reducing oestrogen biosynthesis in peripheral tissues. This oestrogen suppression is critical in hormone-sensitive breast malignancies, where tumour growth is oestrogen-dependent.

For optimal therapeutic outcomes, concomitant use with oestrogen-containing therapies should be avoided, and hepatic/renal function monitored in patients with moderate to severe impairment. Anastrozole demonstrates no clinically significant interactions with common co-administered drugs like warfarin or calcium channel blockers.
