Anastrozole 1mg Tablet used for

• Breast Cancer Treatment: Anastrozole is often prescribed to treat hormone receptor-positive breast cancer in postmenopausal women. It works by reducing the production of estrogen in the body, which can slow down or stop the growth of hormone-sensitive tumors.
• Breast Cancer Prevention: In certain cases, Anastrozole may be used as a preventive measure for women at high risk of developing breast cancer. By reducing estrogen levels, it may help lower the risk of developing hormone receptor-positive breast cancer.
• Steroid-induced Gynecomastia: Anastrozole may also be used off-label to treat gynecomastia, a condition characterized by the enlargement of breast tissue in men. In some cases, gynecomastia can occur as a side effect of certain steroid medications. Anastrozole can help by reducing estrogen levels and alleviating this side effect.
