Caluran 50 Cp Tablet 30 contains bicalutamide (50 mg), which has the following effects on the body:

• Binding to Androgen Receptors: Bicalutamide competitively binds to androgen receptors in target tissues. These receptors are crucial as they allow androgens, male hormones like testosterone, to stimulate prostate cancer cell growth.
• Blocking Androgens: By binding to these androgen receptors, bicalutamide effectively blocks the effect of these hormones on the cancer cells.
• Slowing Cancer Growth: As a result of inhibiting androgens from stimulating the cancer cells, bicalutamide helps to slow down or stop the growth and spread of prostate cancer.
