How to take Ahabir Tablet?::: Ahabir Tablet should be taken on an empty stomach with water 1 hour before eating or at least 2 hours after eating. Taking it with food may cause increased and variable levels of Ahabir Tablet in your blood, which can be harmful. Remember not to crush or chew it.| Can Ahabir Tablet cure prostate cancer?::: Ahabir Tablet does not cure cancer, but helps in prolonging and improving the life of the patient. Moreover, when prostate cancer is treated with Ahabir Tablet, then the frequency of fractures is relatively lower. Similarly, the increase in pain is less common with Ahabir Tablet.| Is Ahabir Tablet a chemotherapy drug?::: Ahabir Tablet is a hormonal treatment, not a chemotherapy drug. It is used to treat prostate cancer in adult men that has spread to other parts of the body. Ahabir Tablet stops your body from making testosterone. This can slow down the growth of prostate cancer.| Why do I need to take prednisolone with Ahabir Tablet?::: Your doctor will always prescribe prednisolone with Ahabir Tablet. Taking these two medicines together lowers the risk of getting high blood pressure, fluid retention (having too much water in your body), or having reduced levels of potassium in your blood, which can occur due to Ahabir Tablet.| Does Ahabir Tablet affect liver?::: Ahabir Tablet can cause severe liver problems. In very rare cases, Ahabir Tablet may even cause failure of the liver to function (called acute liver failure), which can even lead to death. Tell your doctor if you experience yellowing of the skin or eyes, darkening of the urine, or severe nausea or vomiting, as these could be signs or symptoms of liver problems.| How frequently should the liver investigations be done?::: Liver enzymes should be measured before starting the treatment, every two weeks for the first three months of the treatment, and monthly thereafter. If you develop clinical symptoms or signs suggestive of liver toxicity, liver enzymes should be measured immediately. If the liver enzyme levels are increased beyond certain levels, your doctor may temporarily discontinue the treatment with Ahabir Tablet.
Ahabir Tablet works by blocking an enzyme called CYP17, which is involved in the production of androgens (male hormones like testosterone). Since many prostate cancers rely on these hormones to grow, reducing their levels helps slow down or stop the cancer's progression. Essentially, Ahabir Tablet cuts off the fuel supply that the cancer needs to thrive.
