Glenza 160Mg Tab is used to treat prostate cancer. It contains Enzalutamide, an androgen receptor blocker (inhibitor) that blocks testosterone from reaching prostate cancer cells. Most prostate cancers require testosterone to grow; this can slow the growth of the cancer and may shrink it. Enzalutamide is only for use in men. Men using this medication must use effective birth control whenever they have sex during their treatment and for three months after their final dose.
