persistent side effects from: Cipro, Flutamide, RU58841?

Anyone heard of persistent side effects from these drugs. These drugs belong to a family of drugs that bind to the AR receptor blocking DHT from binding to it. They do NOT act on 5-alpha reductase.

Please let me know if you heard of anyone suffering from persistent side effects from any anti-androgen that act directly on AR…

This is one of the effects of saw palmetto, and according to some new research possibly something that fin does as well

ciprofloxacin and other fluoroquinone antibiotics have been known to cause extreme long-lasting joint pain/tendon rupture/something. they also block gaba receptors and chelate minerals like Mg, Zn, etc.

No useful replies?

Who said SP works that way, there is evidence that SP acts on the 5alpha enzyme, wiki:

"
Inhibition of both forms of 5-alpha-reductase with no reduction in cellular capacity to secrete prostate-specific antigen is indicated.[12][13][14][15] Other proposals for mechanisms of action include interfering with dihydrotestosterone binding to the androgen receptor, relaxing smooth muscle tissue similarly to alpha antagonist drugs, and acting as a phytoestrogen.[16][17]"
