About Ca Enza-160 Tablet 7's

Ca Enza-160 Tablet 7's is a prescription medicine primarily used to treat advanced types of prostate cancer. It is designed for prostate cancer that has spread to other parts of the body or no longer responds to medical or surgical treatments that lower testosterone. This medicine works by stopping hormone signals that would otherwise allow cancer cells to grow and multiply.

To get the best results, you must take Ca Enza-160 Tablet 7's consistently every single day at the same time as prescribed. You can take this medicine with or without food, making it easy to fit into your daily routine. Making small adjustments to your daily life, such as incorporating gentle physical activity and eating a balanced diet, can help your body handle the therapy more effectively.

While taking this medicine, you may experience common side effects like hot flashes, fatigue, and joint discomfort. However, you must contact your doctor immediately if you experience severe symptoms such as sudden confusion, severe dizziness, chest pain, or seizures.

Before starting Ca Enza-160 Tablet 7's, you must talk to your doctor if you have a history of seizures, brain injury, stroke, heart disease, or high blood pressure. Do not take this if you are allergic to Ca Enza-160 Tablet 7's or any of the inactive ingredients contained in the tablet.

This medicine can interact with other drugs like blood thinners and certain heart medicines, which may change how well they work or increase side effects. It is not approved for use in women, and pregnant or breastfeeding individuals must not handle or touch the tablets. Elderly patients should talk to their doctor to closely monitor their physical strength and heart health, taking extra precautions against falls due to the combined risk of dizziness, fatigue, and bone weakening.

Uses of Ca Enza-160 Tablet 7's

Ca Enza-160 Tablet 7's is used to treat advanced prostate cancer. The detailed uses of Ca Enza-160 Tablet 7's are as follows:

  • Non-metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (nmCRPC): Ca Enza-160 Tablet 7's treats prostate cancer that is 'castration-resistant' (meaning it continues to grow despite very low testosterone levels) and has not yet spread to other body parts on scans.
  • Metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer (mCSPC): Treats prostate cancer that has spread to other body parts (such as bones or lymph nodes) but still responds to medical or surgical treatments that lower testosterone.
  • Metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC): Treats advanced prostate cancer that has spread to other parts of the body and no longer responds to initial testosterone-lowering treatments.

Key Benefits

Ca Enza-160 Tablet 7's helps slow the progression of advanced prostate cancer and supports long-term disease management. The key benefits of Ca Enza-160 Tablet 7's are as follows:

  • Slows Cancer Progression: By blocking the hormones that fuel tumour growth, Ca Enza-160 Tablet 7's helps slow the progression of advanced prostate cancer, reduces cancer-related pain, and helps prevent the disease from spreading further.
  • Prolongs Survival and Delays Intensive Treatment: Clinical studies have shown that Ca Enza-160 Tablet 7's helps prolong survival and may delay the need for more intensive treatments, such as chemotherapy, allowing many patients to maintain their independence and daily routine for longer.
Side effects of Ca Enza-160 Tablet
  • Wear compression garments like stockings, sleeves, or gloves to apply pressure and help stop fluid from building up, especially after the swelling goes down.
  • Move around and do exercises to help the fluid circulate, especially in swollen limbs. Ask your doctor for specific exercises.
  • Raise the swollen area above your heart level several times a day, even while sleeping, to help reduce swelling.
  • Gently massage the swollen area with firm but not painful pressure.
  • Keep the swollen area clean and moisturized to prevent injury and infection.
  • Reduce salt intake to help prevent fluid from building up and worsening the swelling, as advised by a doctor.
  • If the swelling does not get better after a few days of home treatment or worsens, consult your doctor right away.

Directions for Use

  • Ca Enza-160 Tablet 7's can be taken with or without food or as advised by your doctor.

How Ca Enza-160 Tablet 7's Works

Ca Enza-160 Tablet 7's contains enzalutamide, which belongs to a group of medicines called androgen receptor inhibitors. Male hormones, such as testosterone, act as fuel for prostate cancer cells by attaching to specific receptors on the cancer cells and stimulating their growth. Ca Enza-160 Tablet 7's blocks these androgen receptors, preventing testosterone and other male hormones from attaching to them. This interrupts the growth signals that cancer cells rely on, helping slow the spread of prostate cancer, shrink tumours, and reduce prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels.
