1093-60-3 Usage
General Description
17β-Hydroxy-5α-androst-2-ene-2-carbonitrile, also known as cyproterone acetate, is a synthetic steroidal antiandrogen and progestin medication. It is used for the treatment of androgen-dependent conditions such as acne, hirsutism, and prostate cancer, as well as for the management of hypersexuality and sexual aggression. Cyproterone acetate works by blocking the effects of androgens in the body, leading to a reduction in the production of testosterone and its effects on target tissues. It also has progestogenic activity, which contributes to its contraceptive and menstrual regulation effects. However, it is important to note that cyproterone acetate has been associated with potential adverse effects, including liver dysfunction, depression, and blood clots, and should be used with caution and under the guidance of a healthcare professional.
