Flutamide is a non-steroidal antiandrogenic drug devoid of hormonal agonist activity. Flutamide appears to be a specific antiandrogen only at androgen-dependent accessory genital organs. Its pharmacological activity is due substantially to the principal metabolite, 2-hydroxyflutamide. In comparative trials involving small

Flutamide is rapidly metabolized by hydroxylation of the side chain to SCH 16423 (alpha, alpha, alpha-trifluoro-2-methyl-4'-nitro-m-lactotoluidide), the major metabolic product in all species studied, which is biologically active in vivo and in vitro studies. Flutamide exhibits its antiandrogenic activity by
