I thought Zytiga/Arbiterone with 5mg. Of prednisone was considered ADT.?????? that’s what s going away. The Trelstar/ Lupron 3 monthly injection is going to happen but whether the MO is going to make it chronic- I just don’t know yet???

Lupron is ADT, it reduces your testosterone below 20. That will keep most of the side effects of Zytiga continuing since Zytiga just reduces your testosterone down even lower.

Zytiga is considered an ARPI An Androgen receptor pathway inhibitor and ARSI Androgen receptor, signaling inhibitor. The same things
