Patient summary
Anastrozole 1mg film-coated tablets for breast cancer, including adjuvant therapy. A selective aromatase inhibitor that halts androgen conversion to oestrogen.
Mechanism of action
Anastrozole acts as a potent, highly selective non-steroidal aromatase inhibitor, preventing the conversion of androgens to oestrogens in peripheral tissues, which suppresses oestrogen levels.
Armotraz provides anastrozole, a medication widely utilised for breast cancer and adjuvant therapy. The same active ingredient is also sold under the brand name Arimidex. These tablets are available in the 1mg strength, offering a standard option for patients requiring targeted hormonal management.
Buying Armotraz online
Generic anastrozole, often manufactured in India, provides a cost-effective alternative to branded medicine for many patients across the region. Such treatments are best used under a doctor’s care, ensuring consistent monitoring during long-term hormonal therapy for those living away from home or in locations with limited access to appropriate medical care.
What you will receive
