Scientific Evidence:

Flutamide, the active ingredient in Flutamid tablets, is a nonsteroidal antiandrogen that competitively inhibits the action of androgens. This mechanism of action has been shown to be effective in the treatment of prostate cancer by blocking the effects of testosterone on the prostate cells.

Several studies have demonstrated the efficacy of Flutamide in combination with other therapies for prostate cancer. A study published in the Journal of Clinical Oncology showed that adding Flutamide to standard androgen deprivation therapy improved overall survival in patients with advanced prostate cancer.

Additional Information:

It is important to follow your doctor’s instructions carefully while taking Flutamid tablets. Regular monitoring of liver function tests is recommended during treatment with Flutamide. Inform your doctor about any side effects or concerns while taking this medication.

Flutamid tablets have been well-tolerated in clinical trials, with common side effects including gastrointestinal disturbances and liver function abnormalities. If you experience any severe side effects, contact your healthcare provider immediately.
