Enzana 40mg Capsule

About 

Enzana 40mg Capsule is primarily used for the treatment of prostate cancer. It may also be prescribed for other conditions as determined by your doctor. The medicine works by inhibiting the action of male hormones like testosterone.

It should be taken at the same time each day, with or without food. The dosage and frequency will be determined by your doctor based on your medical condition and response to treatment. Follow the prescribed regimen strictly—taking an incorrect dose or exceeding the recommended amount can result in serious side effects. The therapeutic benefits may take several weeks or months to become noticeable. Do not discontinue the medicine without consulting your doctor.

Common side effects include headache, hot flashes, fatigue, and high blood pressure. You may also experience bone fractures, falls, dry skin, itching (pruritus), reduced appetite, or constipation. Regular blood tests are necessary during treatment to monitor your blood cell counts and liver function. As this medication can increase skin sensitivity to sunlight, take protective measures when outdoors.

Before starting Enzana Capsule, inform your doctor if you have any history of diabetes, seizures, liver or kidney disorders, or if you're taking any medications for infections or other health conditions. Numerous drugs can interact with this medication, so it’s important to disclose all current medications to your doctor.
