Frequently asked questions

Does Zytiprost 250mg Tablet cure prostate cancer?

Zytiprost 250mg Tablet does not cure cancer but helps manage symptoms and potentially prolong life. It may also reduce the risk of fractures and decrease pain frequency in patients with advanced prostate cancer. However, it is important to remember that Zytiprost 250mg Tablet is not a replacement for conventional treatments like surgery or radiation therapy.

Is Zytiprost 250mg Tablet a chemotherapy drug?

Zytiprost 250mg Tablet is a hormonal treatment, not a chemotherapy drug. It helps to lower the levels of testosterone in the body, slowing down the growth of prostate cancer that has spread to other parts of the body. This medication aims to manage symptoms and slow down cancer progression.

Why do I need to take prednisolone with Zytiprost 250mg Tablet?

Your doctor will always prescribe both Zytiprost 250mg Tablet and prednisolone together. This combination decreases the risk of high blood pressure, fluid retention (excess water in your body), or reduced levels of potassium in your blood. These are side effects that can sometimes occur with Zytiprost 250mg Tablet alone.

Does Zytiprost 250mg Tablet affect the liver?

Zytiprost 250mg Tablet has been associated with serious liver problems. It can cause severe liver damage, even leading to liver failure (acute liver failure) in rare cases. If you experience any symptoms like yellow skin or eyes, dark urine, or severe nausea or vomiting, it's important to contact your doctor immediately as these could be signs of liver problems.

How frequently should the liver investigations be done?

Liver enzymes should be measured before starting treatment and then every two weeks for the first three months. Thereafter, monthly monitoring is recommended. If you develop clinical symptoms or signs suggestive of liver toxicity (such as jaundice, dark urine, or severe nausea or vomiting), liver enzyme levels need to be checked immediately. If the liver enzyme levels are abnormally high, your doctor may temporarily suspend Zytiprost 250mg Tablet.

Zytiprost 250mg Tablet should be taken on an empty stomach with water at least one hour before eating, or at least two hours after eating. Do not crush or chew the tablet.
