WHAT BICALUTAMIDE FAIR-MED IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR 
 
Bicalutamide Fair-Med contains a medicine called bicalutamide. This
belongs to a group of 
medicines called ‘anti-androgens’. It works by blocking the
effect of the male sex hormones 
(androgens) and inhibits cell growth in the prostate. 
Bicalutamide Fair-Med is used to treat advanced prostate cancer. It
is taken together with an 
additional hormone treatment (called LHRH analogue) or with
accompanying surgical 
removal of the testicles.
