So, Mitotane is this medicine used to treat a kind of cancer called adrenocortical carcinoma. It kind of shuts down the adrenal glands. You get these 500 mg tablets.
The usual start is between 2 to 6 grams a day, split up into a few doses. But the doc might adjust it depending on how you feel. The stuff comes in bottles with 100 tablets in them.
Always take the pills with food to avoid tummy trouble. You usually start with 2 to 6 grams daily, split into maybe three or four chunks. The doc might tweak it as needed based on how you’re doing.
You gotta keep to a regular schedule and listen to what your doc says about taking the stuff and watching how you’re feeling. Keep the tablets somewhere cool and dry. It’s good to let them know that some people might get sick to their stomach, throw up, or feel tired.
If they have any bad reactions, they should tell their doctor right away.
