Are there any missed dose instructions?
If you miss a dose of Anastrozole, take it as soon as possible. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular schedule. Do not double the dose.\n
This medication works by lowering the level of estrogen in menopausal women, thereby, reducing the risk of breast cancer. It judiciously blocks aromatase. Aromatase allows estrogen to circulate by converting adrenally-formulated androstenedione to estrone. Therefore, its prevention decreases the chances of tumour development.
