flutamide and Cardiomegaly

flutamide has been researched along with Cardiomegaly in 1 studies

Flutamide: An antiandrogen with about the same potency as cyproterone in rodent and canine species.

Cardiomegaly: Enlargement of the HEART, usually indicated by a cardiothoracic ratio above 0.50. Heart enlargement may involve the right, the left, or both HEART VENTRICLES or HEART ATRIA. Cardiomegaly is a nonspecific symptom seen in patients with chronic systolic heart failure (HEART FAILURE) or several forms of CARDIOMYOPATHIES.
