Enzalutamide for Prostate Cancer "I'm a 63-year-old male who was diagnosed with Stage 4 prostate cancer and started on Casodex/Lupron. It was good, but Casodex stopped working after 6 months. I was switched to 160 mg of Xtandi. Dropped my PSA pretty quick, side effects were pretty rough to start with (memory, brain fog, balance issues, hot flashes). After 6 months, the doctor lowered the dose to 80 mg, and side effects lessened. Brain fog reduced greatly, hot flashes and balance issues come and go. PSA has been non-detect for over 2 years now. I also take multiple natural supplements that I have researched. These supplements reportedly block the feeding pathways of my cancer. They can also help extend the effectiveness of the Xtandi. Do your research because the doctors don't look at anything natural. Also, change diet and limit carbs to 75 gm / sugar 40 gm or less. Lots of vegetables, a whole lot less meat. I have to say, I'll put up with the side effects as this drug really works."

For Prostate Cancer "Had metastatic prostate cancer in my lung, three nodules. Been on Xtandi for 2 years. Nodules have disappeared. PSA undetectable. Some side effects, hot flashes, some dizziness, and joint pain. Not sure if just age, 80, or the drug. Rate a 9."

Enzalutamide for Prostate Cancer "Found Xtandi to be a waste of time. Instead of aiding or lowering my PSA, it raised it to 90 from about 15 when starting it. There was severe fatigue and dizziness. Not satisfied."
