Update
By way of an update - my PSA has been quickly rising - 29 at last test so my onco has changed me from the
bicalutamide
to enzalutamide and I am having CT and bone scans in July - very disappointing after a PSA of 0.65 in Jan and hope that I was 'good for a year or two'.

Common Treatments for Advanced Prostate Cancer
Three common types of anti-androgen drugs are: •
Bicalutamide
(Casodex) •Flutamide (Eulexin) •Nilutamide (Nilandron) You may take these before you start GnRH agents to avoid a hormone flare or if other hormone therapy stops working. How you take them. Some hormone therapy drugs are pills.
