Comparison of Spironolactone plus Cyproterone Acetate plus Cyproterone Compound with Spironolactone plus Cyproterone Compound in Hirsutism: A randomized clinical trial

Background: Monotherapy is not usually effective in the treatment of hirsutism. Objective: Comparison of 2 therapeutic regimens in the treatment of hirsutism. Patients and methods: In this open parallel controlled clinical trial, 101 Patients suffering from hirsutism were randomly divided into two equal groups. 50 patients were treated with spironolactone (50 mg/day) plus cyproterone comp...

Cyproterone acetate in treatment of precocious puberty.

Twenty-nine children (23 girls, 6 boys) with precocious puberty were treated with cyproterone acetate for various periods of time ranging from 6 months to 3 years 4 months. They received an oral dose ranging from 70-150 mg/m2 per day, or an intramuscular depot injection once a fortnight or once a month at a dose ranging from 107-230 mg/m2. Both forms of therapy were found to suppress the signs ...

Voltammetric Determination of Cyproterone Acetate in Pharmaceutical Preparations

The voltammetric behaviour of cyproterone acetate (CPA) was studied using direct current (DCt) and differential pulse polarography (DPP). The drug manifests cathodic waves over the pH range of 4-11.8. In Britton-Robinson buffer (BRb) of pH 10, the diffusion current-concentration relationship was found to be rectilinear over the range 3.2-32 μg/mL and 0.5-14 μg/mL using DCt and DPP modes, respec...
