Drug Details
Mitotane, marketed under the name Lysodren, is an oral medication prescribed for the treatment of advanced cancer of the adrenal glands. It functions by inhibiting the growth of or destroying adrenal gland cells, thereby reducing hormone production by the adrenal gland. Although the precise mechanism by which mitotane operates is not fully understood, it is believed to diminish the activity of the gland's outer layer, responsible for producing essential hormones like steroids. This medication is typically taken multiple times daily and is often used alone or in combination with other cancer treatments. Regular blood tests are necessary to monitor the drug levels in your body, as mitotane can cause side effects such as nausea and vomiting. Always consult your healthcare provider to ensure it is safe and effective for your specific condition.
