Aromasin vs Arimidex

Neither of these are SERMs. They're aromatase inhibitors.

Gotcha. Thanks for correcting me.

Really though, you shouldn't use either of them unless you're having estrogenic side effects. And with them, you start off with a really low dosage (like .25mg of Adex every other day) and then raise the dosage or frequency based on if it is stopping the estrogenic side effects or not.

Understand the rationale of the starting at a lower dose. However, does "half life" of drug should mean anything in this context(I mean in beginner's cycle by Aust)? Should I take it as both are just as efficient regardless of their activeness duration in the system?

My guess is that when you reach the half life of the aromasin, your estrogen levels don't instantly go back to what they were, before you took the aromasin. It does take time for the aromatase to take place and the estrogen levels to go back up.
