WHAT ABIRATERONE MYLAN IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Abiraterone Mylan 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. Abiraterone
Mylan stops your body from making
testosterone; this can slow the growth of prostate cancer.
When Abiraterone Mylan 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.
