SEE WARNINGS SECTION.

Use in Women

Flutamide Capsules are for use only in men. This product has no indication for women, and should not be used in this population, particularly for nonserious or nonlife-threatening conditions.

Fetal Toxicity

Flutamide may cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman (see Pregnancy).

Aniline Toxicity

One metabolite of flutamide is 4-nitro-3-fluoro-methylaniline. Several toxicities consistent with aniline exposure, including methemoglobinemia, hemolytic anemia, and cholestatic jaundice have been observed in both animals and humans after flutamide administration. In patients susceptible to aniline toxicity (e.g., persons with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency, hemoglobin M disease, and smokers), monitoring of methemoglobin levels should be considered.
