Structure: Non-steroidal aromatase inhibitor
Context of use: Prescription medical use under professional supervision; hormone/estrogen management in clinically appropriate cases

Safety Information
Anastrozole can be associated with clinically relevant side effects and risks. These may include adverse changes in lipid profile, musculoskeletal discomfort (e.g., joint pain), fatigue, headache, hot flashes, and gastrointestinal symptoms (such as nausea). Longer-term estrogen suppression may negatively affect bone mineral density and increase fracture risk in susceptible individuals. Liver enzyme elevations are possible but not among the most common reactions. Individual responses vary, and use should be guided by a qualified medical professional with appropriate monitoring when indicated.
