Uses
Armotraz (Anastrozole) belongs to a class of medicines referred to as non-steroidal aromatase inhibitors and it is indicated for the treatment of advanced breast cancer in postmenopausal women, post surgery breast cancer or else metastatic breast cancer. Treatment with this medicine is referred to as hormone therapy, as its method of action involves decreasing the body's production of oestrogen.

Certain types of cancer (known as hormone receptive positive) grow by acting on the oestrogen receptors of the cancerous cells, allowing the cancer to spread. The production of oestrogen in postmenopausal women is due to the aromatase enzyme producing oestrogen from other hormones in the body. As this drug stops the aromatase enzyme from making oestrogen, a drop in oestrogen levels occurs, thereby denying the cancer cells the oestrogen needed to grow.

Studies have been conducted which compared its efficacy as a first line treatment for advanced breast cancer to other medicines. Other analysis has taken place which focused on its use in combination with certain other medicines for the treatment of metastatic breast cancer. Some medical experts also believe that it is useful as an adjuvant treatment in patients affected by early stage breast cancer over an extended period of time.
