flucytosine : An organofluorine compound that is cytosine that is substituted at position 5 by a fluorine. A prodrug for the antifungal 5-fluorouracil, it is used for the treatment of systemic fungal infections.

Osteoarthritis: A progressive, degenerative joint disease, the most common form of arthritis, especially in older persons.

In the foreign literature it is often called osteoarthrosis deformans.
