Medicine Description arimidex-uae 1mg
arimidex 1mg 28 tablets - rosheta uae is a medication that functions as a non-steroidal aromatase inhibitor. It works by inhibiting the aromatase enzyme, which is responsible for converting androgens into estrogens. In postmenopausal women, most of the circulating estrogens are produced through this enzymatic conversion. By reducing the levels of estrogen in the body, Arimidex helps to slow or stop the growth of estrogen-dependent tumors in breast cancer patients, thereby providing an effective treatment option for those whose cancer is stimulated by this hormone.
