WHAT ZYTIGA IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
ZYTIGA contains a medicine called abiraterone acetate. It is used to
treat prostate cancer in adult men
that has spread to other parts of the body. ZYTIGA stops your body
from making testosterone; this can
slow the growth of prostate cancer.
When ZYTIGA is prescribed for the early stage of disease where it is
still responding to hormone
therapy, it is used with a treatment that lowers testosterone
(androgen deprivation therapy).
When you take this medicine your doctor will also prescribe another
medicine called prednisone or
prednisolone. This is to lower your chances of getting high blood
pressure, having too much water in
your body (fluid retention), or having reduced levels of a chemical
known as potassium in your blood.
