Description
Anastrozole is an anti-estrogen drug that is available in tablet form. Initially, Anastrozole was developed as a drug for oncological diseases of the breast. However, these days in medical practice, the drug is practically not used. In sports, Anastrozole has gained great popularity: it is used by athletes and fans of power sports. The drug helps to avoid the growth of breast glands, gets rid of edema and other negative side effects that often accompany the course of taking anabolics. Anastrozole has a pronounced effect: just one milligram of the active ingredient can reduce the content of estradiol in the bloodstream by 80%! Even Tamoxifen, quite popular among bodybuilders, can not compare with Anastrozole in the strength of the effect. However, the drugs have a different principle of action, so the comparison between them is unlikely to be correct. Anastrozole has the following effect on the body: it lowers the level of aromatization (by about 80%); it has the properties of an inhibitor; it lowers the content of estrogen in the blood. One of the most important properties of the drug is a fairly rapid effect. Just a couple of hours after taking it, the maximum concentration of the active ingredient is observed in the blood. At the same time, the suppression of the aromatization process occurs in the shortest possible time. Therefore, Anastrozole is considered one of the most effective drugs for athletes who have a tendency to aromatization. How to take Anastrozole is recommended only for experienced athletes: beginners should preferably refuse it. The tablets are used after the course of anabolic steroids ends. Anastrozole should be taken in two cases: in the appearance of pronounced side effects after taking steroids and before the start of the course as a prophylactic agent. After the course of steroid is taken from 0.25 to 1 mg per day. Before the course, the dosage should be determined by a specialist. Take Anastrozole can be taken for two weeks: during this time, the drug will have time to show its properties in full. In order for the active ingredient to enter the bloodstream as quickly as possible, Anastrozole should be taken before meals, drinking a large volume of water.
Female athletes to drink Anastrozole is not recommended. The drug can provoke sudden changes in the hormonal background, which can lead to unpredictable consequences for the female body.
What side effects can cause the reception of Anastrozole?
Side effects from the drug occur relatively rarely. As a rule, they are associated with intolerance to the active ingredients or exceeding the recommended dosage. Among the most common side effects are rapid fatigue, drowsiness, skin redness, headache, as well as various negative manifestations of the gastrointestinal tract (nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, etc.). From taking Anastrozole should be refused in the presence of chronic diseases of the cardiovascular system. This is due to the fact that the drug actively counteracts the side effects of steroids, but at the same time it blocks the production of “good” cholesterol, which can lead to heart problems. For this reason, athletes who have cardiovascular diseases should consult a doctor before taking Anastrozole, or prefer drugs with a similar effect, but a different mechanism of action on the body.
