Interest in taking abiraterone with food waned when it became available in the US as a relatively low cost generic ($183/mo on GoodRx).

I haven't seen any studies in the UK, only from The Netherlands, Canada, and U of Chicago:

If you can afford the generic, there is no reason to take it with food, as there is great interpatient variability in absorption and side effects are the same.

Not what you're looking for?
