1. What is Anastrozol Tarbis and what is it used for

Anastrozol Tarbis contains a substance called anastrozole and belongs to a group of medicines known as “aromatase inhibitors”. Anastrozole is used to treat breast cancer in postmenopausal women.

Anastrozole works by reducing the amount of hormones called estrogens produced by your body, by blocking a natural bodily substance (an enzyme) called “aromatase”.

2. What you need to know before starting Anastrozol Tarbis

Do not take Anastrozol Tarbis

  • if you are allergic to anastrozol or any of the other components of Anastrozol Tarbis (listed in section 6).
  • if you are pregnant or breastfeeding (see the section called “Pregnancy and breastfeeding”).

Do not take anastrozol if you are in any of the situations described above. If you are unsure, consult your doctor or pharmacist before taking anastrozol.

Warnings and precautions

Before taking Anastrozol Tarbis, check with your doctor or pharmacist

  • if you still have menstrual periods and have not reached menopause.
  • if you are taking a medication that contains tamoxifeno or medications that contain estrogen (see the section called “Use of other medications”).
  • if you have ever had any condition that affects the strength of your bones (osteoporosis).
  • if you have any liver or kidney problems.

If you are unsure about any of this, consult your doctor or pharmacist before taking anastrozol.

Inform hospital staff that you are taking anastrozol if you are admitted to the hospital.

Taking Anastrazol Tarbis with other medications

Inform your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have taken recently, or may need to take any other medication, including those obtained without a prescription and herbal remedies. This is because anastrozol may affect the activity of other medications, and some medications may affect anastrozol.

Do not take Anastrozol if you are already being treated with any of the following medications:

  • Certain medications used to treat breast cancer (selective estrogen receptor modulators), such as medications that contain tamoxifeno. This is because these medications may make anastrozol ineffective.
  • Medications that contain estrogens, such as hormone replacement therapy (HRT).

If you are in any of these situations, seek advice from your doctor or pharmacist.

Consult your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking the following:

  • A medication known as an “LHRH analog”. This includes gonadorelina, buserelina, goserelina, leuprorelina, and triptorelina. These medications are used to treat breast cancer, certain gynecological conditions, and infertility.

Pregnancy and breastfeeding

Do not take anastrozol if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Discontinue anastrozol treatment if you become pregnant and consult your doctor.

Consult your doctor or pharmacist before using any medication.

Driving and operating machinery

It is unlikely that anastrozol will affect your ability to drive or use any tool or machine. However, some patients may occasionally feel weakness or drowsiness while taking anastrozol. If this happens, seek advice from your doctor or pharmacist.

Anastrazol Tarbis contains lactose

This medication contains lactose, a type of sugar. If your doctor has told you that you have a certain sugar intolerance, consult with them before taking this medication.

Use in athletes

Use in children and adolescents

Anastrozol should not be administered to children and adolescents.

If you take more Anastrozol Tarbis than you should

If you take more anastrozol than you should, contact your doctor immediately.
