Important Information On Arimidex (Anastrazole)

Arimidex is used for the adjuvant treatment of post-menopausal women with early stage hormone receptor positive breast cancer. This drug is FDA approved for this indication. The FDA approval is based on data from a clinical trial, which showed improved disease free survival in patients with early stage breast cancer who were treated with armidex for 31 months. Note that there is no evidence for improvement in survival associated with the use of arimidex in comparison to tamoxifen.

Important considerations:

Arimidex is not indicated for pre-menopausal women
Since arimidex may cause fetal damage, this drug should not be taken by women who are pregnant or planning to become pregnant
Arimidex may accelerate loss of bone mineral density leading to increased risk of osteoporosis and fractures
Tamoxifen should not be taken with arimidex as it may diminish the efficiency of arimidex
Most common side effects to arimidex include, hot flashes, joint pains, fatigue, mood disturbances, pain, nausea, vomiting, pharyngitis, and depression
