Description
Introduction Of Azel 40mg Capsule:
Azel 40mg Capsule is an androgen receptor inhibitor used in the treatment of prostate cancer in men.
Azel 40mg Capsule should be taken with or without food, preferably at a fixed time every day. Your doctor will decide what dose is necessary and how often you need to take it, based on your medical condition, and this may change from time to time. You should take it exactly as your doctor has advised, and swallow the capsule whole without breaking, crushing, or chewing it. Both men and their partners should use effective contraception during treatment and for three months after the final dose, as this medicine can harm an unborn baby. Taking it in the wrong way or taking too much can cause very serious side effects.
Headache and hot flashes are among the most common effects of this medicine. Your doctor may advise regular monitoring of your blood pressure and blood glucose levels while you are on treatment. Inform your doctor immediately if you have a history of seizures, or if you notice trouble breathing, unusual swelling in your hands, arms, legs, or feet, or any loss of consciousness, as this medicine can rarely cause seizures.

Prostate cancer is a type of cancer that occurs only in men, affecting the prostate gland, a small gland beneath the bladder that produces seminal fluid. Most prostate cancers rely on testosterone to grow. Azel 40mg Capsule works by blocking testosterone from reaching prostate cancer cells, which slows the growth of the cancer, may help shrink tumours, and improves survival outcomes.

Mechanism Of Action Of Azel 40mg Capsule:
Azel Capsule contains Enzalutamide, an androgen receptor inhibitor. It works by blocking the effect of natural male hormones, such as testosterone, from reaching and acting on prostate cancer cells. Since most prostate cancers depend on testosterone to grow, this blocking action slows down the growth of the cancer and may help shrink the tumour.
