About Arimidexic
Arimidexic (Anastrozole) is a non-steroidal aromatase inhibitor. It reduces the conversion of androgens to estrogens. Tablets also contain common excipients (e.g., lactose, povidone, HPMC, PEG, sodium starch glycolate, magnesium stearate, titanium dioxide). It is not a steroid.
Use in Bodybuilding (Off-label)
Many athletes use anastrozole to limit bloating (edema) and gynecomastia when running aromatizing compounds. Typical informal protocols reported: 0.25–1 mg daily or 0.5–1 mg every other day, adjusted to individual response.
