ANASTROZOLE (CAS NO.: 120511-73-1)
SIDE EFFECTS

Each person's reaction to any medication is different. Most people have very few side effects with ANASTROZOLE, while others may experience more. The side effects described in this factsheet will not affect everyone and may be different if you are taking more than one drug.

We have outlined the most common side effects. However, we have not included those that are very rare and therefore extremely unlikely to affect you. If you notice any effects that are not listed in this information, please discuss them with your doctor or nurse.

You will see your doctor regularly while you have this treatment so that they can monitor the effects. This information should help you to discuss any queries about your treatment and its side effects with your doctor or nurse, as they are in the best position to help and advise you.

Some people may have the following side effects to varying degrees:

Hot flushes and sweats These are usually mild and may wear off after a period of time. Sometimes women find that avoiding or cutting down on tea, coffee, nicotine and alcohol can reduce sweats. Recent research suggests that progestogen or some anti-depressants may be helpful in controlling this side effect. Your doctor or nurse can discuss this with you.

Some women find that complementary therapies help, and your GP may be able to give you details about getting these on the NHS.

If you are having troublesome hot flushes, discuss these with your doctor.

Vaginal dryness This may occur while using ANASTROZOLE. Gels that can help to overcome the dryness are available. The gels can be bought from any chemist or can be prescribed by your doctor.

Feeling sick (nausea), being sick (vomiting) and diarrhoea These side effects are rare. If they occur they can usually be effectively treated, so let your doctor know. Feeling sick can often be relieved by taking your tablet with food or at night. If you have diarrhoea it is important to drink plenty of fluids.

Hair thinning Some women notice that their hair becomes thinner while taking ANASTROZOLE. This is usually mild and the hair regrows at the end of treatment.

Headaches Some people have headaches whilst taking ANASTROZOLE but this is not common. It is important to drink plenty of fluids. Let your doctor know if you are getting headaches, as they can prescribe medication.

Skin rashes Rarely, ANASTROZOLE can cause skin rashes.

Vaginal bleeding Vaginal bleeding (usually in the first few weeks of treatment) has been reported. This is rare and has usually occurred after changing from other hormonal therapies to treatment with ANASTROZOLE. If the bleeding continues, tell your doctor or breast-care nurse.

Joint pains/muscular stiffness Some women have pain and stiffness in their joints while taking ANASTROZOLE. Let your doctor know if these effects are troublesome. It may be helpful to take mild painkillers.

Tiredness and lethargy Some people can have increased tiredness, especially at the start of treatment. It is important to get plenty of rest. If you are very sleepy you should take extra care when driving or operating machinery.

Risk of osteoporosis Women who have osteoporosis (weakened bones) or are at risk of it, should have their bone strength assessed before and during treatment with ANASTROZOLE. In some situations it may be necessary to start treatment to help prevent osteoporosis from developing.
