ZECYTE
ZECYTE is the Generic Version of Zytiga® (Abiraterone Acetate)
ZECYTE 250mg – Abiraterone Acetate is a drug used in combination with prednisone in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (formerly hormone-resistant prostate cancer) which is a prostate cancer not responding to androgen deprivation or treatment with anti-androgens
ZECYTE (Abiraterone acetate) works by inhibiting specific “enzymes” in your adrenal glands that are responsible for making androgens. For this reason, there is an increased risk of over production of mineralcorticosteroids in your body while on ZECYTE(Abiraterone acetate).
As a result, ZECYTE(Abiraterone acetate) may cause hypertension [high blood pressure], hypokalemia [low levels of potassium in the blood], and fluid retention.
Because of this risk, ZECYTE (Abiraterone acetate) should be used cautiously in patients with a strong cardiovascular history, and patients should be monitored closely for these symptoms. Dosing along with prednisone will decrease the risk of mineralocorticoid excess.
