Hello,
Are you referring to Armidex? If so, my research tells me that Arimidex (the brand name for the main ingredient Anastrozole) is an aromatase inhibitor that helps prevent the production of estrogen, a hormone that fuels many breast cancer tumors. Aromatase inhibitors can block the enzyme aromatase, a substance that helps your body tissues produce estrogen. Arimidex is considered a hormonal treatment, and can help prevent recurrence (return) of breast cancer.
Possible side effects (patients with early stage breast cancer have reported these symptoms):
-hot flashes
-joint pain
-weakness
-mood swings
-sore throat
-nausea and vomiting
-depression
-high blood pressure
-osteoporosis (bone thinning)
-swelling of arms and/or legs
-headache
You can learn more about this drug on the page for Anastrozole Details
I hope this info helps!
