It is used as an anticancer drug. Pharmacogenetics is based on the synthesis of estradiol and a delay in the formation of the aromatase enzyme. This is important because in postmenopausal women, metabolism is reduced and the formation of enzymes, such as androstenedione, which is converted to estradiol, slows down. A reduced level of estradiol is a clinical manifestation of breast cancer in postmenopausal women.
Anastrozole is prescribed to promote the conversion of androstenedione to estradiol.
Anastrozole is indicated for use in women as a therapy for hormonal and other types of breast cancer.
The drug has several contraindications:
• hypersensitivity to the components of the drug;
• pregnancy, lactation;
• varying degrees of renal failure;
• children under 18;
It is prescribed with caution to patients with coronary heart disease, impaired liver function, lactose intolerance, and lactase deficiency.
Anastrozole is prescribed in the following dosage - 1 mg orally 1 time per day. Anastrozole after oral administration on an empty stomach is rapidly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. The drug is used for a long time. The recommended duration is 5 years.
