THERAPEUTICAL INDICATIONS

Therefore, anastrozole is used to control the estrogen related side effects by blocking the aromatase enzyme conversion to estrogen. It is a popular aromatase inhibitor and one must be aware of the proper doses of anastrozole, indications of use, side effects and others before starting to use it.

DOSES AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION

Anastrozole is a drug that comes in form of tablets. Generally it is recommended small doses of anastrozole while on cycle. It is indicated a dose of around 0.5mg every day in order to prevent estrogen side effects. However, there might be the case of administering 1mg every day in order to prevent side effects from anabolic steroid use. The dose also depends on the sensitivity of each individual to aromatase inhibitors. Therefore, each individual should adjust the dose in order to benefit most from the therapy with it. Start with a lower dose and adjust it according to the tolerance to the drug and efficiency.

SIDE EFFECTS

Like any other aromatase inhibitor, anastrozole may cause side effects. Usually, these are common to the most of the aromatase inhibitors; however, these also depend on each person’s tolerance to the drug and the way the body responds to it. As already mentioned, anastrozole reduces the level of estrogen and while it is beneficial in preventing estrogen side effects such as gynecomastia, acne, excessive water retention and others, it may also be detrimental, as the estrogen is to some extent responsible for the regulation of user’s sex drive and during low estrogen levels one may experience decreased libido.

• Impaired lipid profile and immune system;
• Decreased level of cholesterol.
