Description
Type: OralPack: 28 tablets (1mg/tab)Substance: Anastrozole Manufacturer: Astra Zeneca
Arimidex is made up of anastrozole. It is the strongest anti-estrogen and therefore the most effective solution for gynecomastia problems.
It is not a steroid, but a form of anti-aromitase tablets which is used by many bodybuilders to help prevent swelling (edema) and gynecomastia (shrinking of the testicles) associated with the use of testosterone and androgenic anabolic steroids.
It can be used instead of Nolvadex and Proviron.
Athletes use between 0.25mg to 1mg daily or 0.5mg to 1mg every other day and have good results with this product.
The FDA has approved its use for the treatment of breast cancer in postmenopausal women with disease progression after treatment with tamoxifen.
It would seem wise to take this drug in combination with a steroid cycle especially when using large amounts or when one is prone to gynecomastia even when using moderate amounts.
Arimidex does not have the side effects of aminoglutethimide (Cytadren) and can achieve a high degree of estrogen blockade, much more so than Cytadren.
As an aromatase inhibitor, the mechanism of action of Arimidex (blocking the conversion of aromatizable steroids to estrogen) is contrasted with the mechanism of action of anti-estrogens such as clomiphene (Clomid) or tamoxifen (Nolvadex), which block estrogen receptors in some tissues, and activate estrogen receptors in others.
Effective dose: 1-2 mg/day
