flutamide and Glaucoma

flutamide has been researched along with Glaucoma in 1 studies

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

Glaucoma: An ocular disease, occurring in many forms, having as its primary characteristics an unstable or a sustained increase in the intraocular pressure which the eye cannot withstand without damage to its structure or impairment of its function. The consequences of the increased pressure may be manifested in a variety of symptoms, depending upon type and severity, such as excavation of the optic disk, hardness of the eyeball, corneal anesthesia, reduced visual acuity, seeing of colored halos around lights, disturbed dark adaptation, visual field defects, and headaches.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"The present data suggest that those prostate cancer patients who have even marginally elevated adrenal androgens may especially benefit from combined androgen blockade."1.35Partial androgen suppression consequent to increased secretion of adrenal androgens in a patient with prostate cancer treated with long-acting GnRH agonists. ( Belanger, A; Chertin, B; Farkas, A; Fridmans, A; Hartman, H; Labrie, F; Spitz, IM, 2009)
