Description

Apnat (Apalutamide) is an androgen receptor inhibitor widely used for the treatment of two types of prostate cancer:

  • Prostate cancer that has progressed/spread to other parts of the body and still responds to a medical or surgical treatment that scales down the testosterone. This is known as metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer (mCSPC).
  • Prostate cancer that has not progressed/spread to other organs/parts of the body and no longer responds to a medical or surgical treatment that scales down the testosterone. This is known as non-metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (nmCRPC).

Dosage and Side Effects

The recommended dose of Apnat (Apalutamide) is 240 mg (four 60 mg tablets) administered orally once daily with or without food. Swallow the tablets whole. Patients should not stop their treatment without talking with their health specialist first.

Patients should start/continue a GnRH (gonadotropin-releasing hormone) analog therapy during their treatment of Apalutamide unless they had surgery to scale down the level of testosterone in the blood (surgical castration).

In case of a missed dose, take a normal dose of apalutamide 60 mg as promptly as possible on the same day. Return to normal dose schedule on the following day. Do not take any extra tablets to make up for the missed dose. In case of an overdose, call your health specialist immediately.
