Anastrozole 50 tabs (1 mg/1 tab)

Anastrozole by Somatrop Lab is a non-steroidal drug that is used to prevent estrogen-related side effects, prevent the appearance of gynecomastia, and water retention in the body. It is only used in long-term steroid courses with high doses of drugs.

Anastrozole is most often used in the course of drugs that are susceptible to aromatization, testosterone, methandienone, and boldenone. The main property is the reduction of estradiol. For women, the drug is contraindicated for sports purposes, because it can severely disrupt the level of hormones in the body.

Effects of taking Anastrozole

According to athletes, 1 mg of the active substance can reduce the concentration of the hormone by 80%. In addition to its pronounced antiestrogenic properties, the drug has a number of positive effects:

1. removes excess fluid;
2. helps reduce the aromatization of steroids;
3. normalizes high blood pressure;
4. supports work in the hypothalamic-pituitary-testicular chain;
5. increases the concentration of anabolic substances;
6. improves the quality of muscle relief.

Medical indications for taking Anastrozole

Treatment of certain types of breast cancer in postmenopausal women, including women whose disease has progressed after tamoxifen therapy.

It can be used by men with low testosterone levels caused by excessive aromatization. Other treatment conditions must be determined by your doctor.

Application and dosage of Anastrozole

The correct approach to eliminating the symptoms of gynecomastia (swelling and itching in the nipple area) is to take tests for estradiol after 10 days of using anabolic steroids with a short half-life (testosterone propionate, methandienone). After which an average dosage of Anastrozole is prescribed: 0.5 mg every two days. After 10 days of use, a second blood test for estradiol is performed, based on the results of which further intake and doses are adjusted.

If the process given above is difficult for you, then there is a compromise option. Take a moderate to low dose every day from the start of your steroid cycle (0.5 - 1 mg per day before meals). Focus on subjective feelings. If after a week of taking it you experience a drop in libido and depression, you will need to lower the dose.

Side effects

Anastrozole should not be used without the need for precise dosage calculation. It can cause negative symptoms associated with too little estrogen in the blood:

• decreased rate of muscle growth;
• joint pain;
• decreased bone strength;
• increased levels of “bad” cholesterol;
• decline in sexual desire;
• manifestations of depressive states.

Store in a dry place, protected from light at a temperature of 15-25°C. Keep out of the reach of children.

What to Avoid

The simultaneous use of Anastrozole and tamoxifen or products containing estrogens should be avoided, as this may reduce their pharmacological effect. It is necessary to consider the risks and benefits of treating patients with existing coronary artery disease with Anastrozole.

Overdose

Clinical experience with accidental overdose is limited. A single dose of anastrozole that leads to life-threatening symptoms has not been established. There is no specific antidote, treatment is symptomatic.

When treating an overdose, the possibility of taking multiple substances should be considered. If the patient is not unconscious, you can induce vomiting. Dialysis may be helpful because anastrozole is not highly protein-bound. General supportive care, including frequent monitoring of vital signs, and close monitoring of the patient are recommended.
