Advanced Prostate Cancer

These medications must be taken indefinitely or the prostate will start to grow again. Complications are minimal with the rare reported case of decrease in desire or loss of sexual ability.

An interesting side effect of the 5-alpha reductase inhibitors is reversal of baldness, a nice benefit for bald guys. On the other hand, few of the men I treat mention regrowth of hair.

Both Proscar and Avodart reduce PSA (prostate-specific antigen, measured for the blood test to detect early prostate cancer) by about half. After a period of a year, one can continue to monitor and screen for prostate cancer with this test, but it must be remembered that the values will be reduced. At the same time, Proscar has been shown to reduce the risk of prostate cancer by about 25%. Studies for similar effects by Avodart are ongoing, but I think it will also reduce risk.

Alternatively, alpha blockers, a class of medications sometimes used to treat high blood pressure, have been found to relax the muscle fibers within the prostate and outflow tube. This relaxation enlarges the channel and decreases the blockage. The medications do not shrink the prostate, and the prostate will continue to enlarge in size. They are, however, quite effective at reducing symptoms.

Flowmax is the most popular of the alpha blockers, followed by Uroxatrol. They have less tendency to reduce blood pressure than the old-line (and now generic) medications Hytrin and Cardura, but none of these medications is likely to kill two birds with one stone.
The symptoms will return immediately if the medication is stopped. Studies have shown a success rate of 40-50% in terms of a decrease in symptoms and improving urinary flow. Side effects include dizziness, fatigue, light headedness and fainting. For the first few days, the medication should be taken with caution at night, since when getting up to urinate there is the potential to pass out.

Nothing says that these two classes of medications can’t be used together, and that is, in fact, a common approach. A typical regimen after evaluation might be to start Flowmax and return in two weeks for further evaluation. If prostate cancer has been ruled out, PSA is over 2, and a digital rectal exam indicates enlargement, then I add Avodart. About a third of men can stop the Flowmax after three months, 60% can drop it at six months, and 90% are off within nine months. As noted previously, Avodart can also be reduced over time. especially considering the fact that most products work so poorly and help so little.
