What are the imported drugs for the treatment of prostate cancer

There are three main types of drugs used to treat prostate cancer:

1. Luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone analogues: Luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone analogues are used for drug castration, although surgical castration can quickly and continuously reduce the level of androgens in the body, but the surgical trend will cause too many psychological problems in patients, so drug castration is used, and such drugs that have been marketed include leuprolide, goserelin, and triptorelin;

2. Estrogen: estrogen can effectively inhibit the activity of androgens, etc., the most commonly used estrogen is diethylstilbestrol, which can achieve the same effect of castration, but due to the high adverse reactions of this type of drug in cardiovascular aspects, it must be used cautiously in clinical practice;

3. Anti-androgen drugs: There are two main types of anti-androgen drugs, one is steroid drugs, which is represented by megestrol acetate, and the other class of drugs is non-steroidal drugs, mainly represented by bicaluam and flutamide, anti-androgen drugs play the role of direct competitors of male hormones in the body, when male hormones want to enter the prostate cells to play a role, he will take the first step to occupy the job of male hormones, so that male hormones are useless in the prostate.
