Androcur Information

Androcur Details (Brand and Generic)

CanadaPharmacyOnline.com currently offers the brand Androcur from Canada, manufactured by PharmaScience and from Turkey by Bayer. The generic version is not available. Our customers may also purchase other Prostate Medication (BPH) such as Avodart.

Dosage

Androcur is available in the strength of 50 mg and 100 mg tablets.

Usage

Androcur (Cyproterone) is a prescription medicine used to treat advanced prostate cancer. The active ingredient in the Androcur is Cyproterone. Cyproterone belongs to a class of medications known as steroidal antiandrogens. Antiandrogens such as Androcur block the effect of the hormone called testosterone. This causes a reduction in the production of testosterone in the testicles, which prostate cancer cells require for growth.

Side Effects and Precautions

The common side effects of Androcur are constipation, decreased sexual interest or ability, diarrhea, dizziness, frequent urination, headache, skin discoloration, swelling of the breasts or breast soreness, and changes in your weight.

Stop using Androcur and contact your doctor right away if you have any of the serious side effects such as:
• Breast milk discharge;
• Signs of a severe allergic reaction such as abdominal cramps, difficulty breathing, nausea, vomiting, or swelling of the face and throat;
• Signs of bleeding in the stomach (e.g., bloody, black, or tarry stools; spitting up of blood; vomiting blood or material that looks like coffee grounds);
• Signs of heart attack (e.g., sudden chest pain or pain radiating to back, down arm, jaw; sensation of fullness of the chest; nausea; vomiting; sweating; anxiety);
• Signs of pancreatitis (e.g., abdominal pain on the upper left side, back pain, nausea, fever, chills, rapid heartbeat, swollen abdomen);
• Symptoms of depression (e.g., poor concentration, changes in weight, changes in sleep, decreased interest in activities, thoughts of suicide)

Warnings and Interactions

Before you begin using the Androcur tablet, you should let your doctor confirm your condition and carry out some other tests. You should not take this medication without your doctor's prescription. Do not increase your dosage as this may worsen your condition. Continue taking your medicine for as long as your doctor tells you. This medicine helps to control your condition but does not cure it. It is essential to keep taking your medication even if you feel well. This medicine may cause tiredness and can impair your ability to concentrate. If you have any of these symptoms, do not drive, operate machinery or do anything else that could be dangerous. The effectiveness of Cyproterone may be reduced if you consume alcohol. You should limit the amount of alcohol you drink when taking this medication. You may experience low sexual drive while taking this medication. If this is a concern, kindly reach out to your doctor for a check-up and advice. Androcur can also increase your blood sugar. You should check your blood sugar regularly. Cyproterone (Androcur) use has occasionally been associated with increased depressive mood changes. You should notify your doctor if you've had depression in the past.
