PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:

Cyproterone Acetate 50 MG Tablets are a powerful anti-androgen and progestational agent, widely used in the management of hormone-dependent conditions. Its primary mechanism involves blocking the action of male sex hormones (androgens) at target organs, making it an effective treatment in both androgen-related disorders in women and advanced prostate cancer in men.

It is commonly prescribed for severe acne, hirsutism, and androgenic alopecia in women and is a key agent in palliative care for prostate cancer in male patients. Cyproterone Acetate plays a vital role in endocrine regulation and gender transition therapies as well.
