1. What is Anastrozole Accord and what is it used for

Anastrozole Accord contains a substance called anastrozole. This belongs to a group of medicines called aromatase inhibitors. It is used to treat breast cancer in women who have gone through the menopause.

Anastrozole Accord works by reducing the amount of hormones called estrogens that are produced by your body, through blocking a natural substance (an enzyme) called aromatase.

2. What you need to know before you take Anastrozole Accord

Do not take Anastrozole Accord:

  • If you are allergic to anastrozole or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6).
  • If you are pregnant or breast-feeding (see section "Pregnancy and breast-feeding").

Warnings and precautions

Consult your doctor, pharmacist or nurse before taking Anastrozole Accord:

  • if you are still having menstrual periods and have not yet gone through the menopause. You have osteoporosis or have had a condition that affects the strength of your bones. Anastrozole reduces the levels of female hormones, which may lead to a loss of bone mineral density, making your bones weaker. Your bone density may also be measured during treatment. Your doctor may prescribe other medicines to prevent or treat bone loss.
  • if you are taking a medicine that contains tamoxifen or medicines that contain estrogen (see section "Other medicines and Anastrozole Accord").
  • if you have ever had a condition that affects the strength of your bones (osteoporosis).
  • if you have liver or kidney problems.

If you are not sure if any of these apply to you, consult your doctor or pharmacist before taking Anastrozole Accord.
