Xtide 160mg Tablet

Xtide 160mg Tablet contains the active compound enzalutamide, which belongs to the class of medications called androgen receptor inhibitors. It is used to treat prostate cancer in men. It is suitable for treatment in men with high testosterone levels where previous treatments (hormonal therapy or testosterone-lowering surgery) that reduce testosterone no longer provide complete disease control. It is also suitable for treatment in metastatic cases where the cancer has spread from the prostate to other parts of the body and responds to hormone therapy or surgery to reduce testosterone levels. It is also used in cases of prostate cancer that is responsive to castration (surgical removal of testicles) but is not metastatic, with a high risk of metastasis and biochemical recurrence. It is not recommended to take Xtide 160mg Tablet if you are allergic to the active compound or any other ingredients of this medicine. It is not recommended for use in children and adolescents below the age of 18. Men are advised to use effective contraceptive methods during therapy and for 3 months after treatment since it has the ability to harm the developing foetus. Inform your doctor if you are pregnant or planning to become pregnant to discuss effective contraceptive methods. It is recommended to test your bone density during treatment. Before starting treatment, inform your physician if you have any infections, kidney, heart, or liver problems. Patients who have ischemic heart disease require close monitoring for risk factors. Inform your doctor immediately if you experience a seizure, worsening headache, disorientation, blindness, or any other vision problems. It is necessary to inform your physician about all medicines, over-the-counter drugs, vitamins, and herbal supplements you are taking before starting therapy.

Prostate cancer resistant to other treatments Metastatic prostate cancer reacts to hormone therapy or surgery to reduce testosterone levels Non-metastatic prostate cancer with a high chance of spread and recurrence

Xtide 160mg Tablet medicine acts by blocking the activity of androgens hormone (such as testosterone) by binding with androgen receptors. Xtide 160mg Tablet prevents the Androgen receptor from moving to its new site, which further lowers AR-mediated transcriptional activity and stops the growth of tumor cells. Xtide 160mg Tablet inhibits the AR complex's ability to bind to DNA, which stops the transcriptional activation of AR target genes. As a result, it reduces testosterone levels and halts the growth and division of prostate cancer cells.

Xtide 160mg Tablet is usually taken orally, with or without food. The capsules should be swallowed whole with a glass of water and not crushed, chewed or broken. The dosage and frequency of Xtide 160mg Tablet will depend on various factors, including the patient's age, weight, overall health, and the type and stage of cancer being treated. It's important to follow the dosing instructions provided by a healthcare provider and not adjust the dosage or frequency without consulting with them first.
