Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine if treatment using a medication (anastrozole/Arimidex), which lowers estrogen levels in the blood is better than placebo, a tablet that does not contain any active medication, when combined with testosterone replacement to treat reproductive and sexual dysfunction in men with epilepsy. Anastrozole, the medication that is currently under study, does not, at this time, have FDA approval for use for this indication.
