1. Hepatic changes are rarely severe and were frequently transient, resolving or improving with continued therapy or following cessation of therapy

2. Listed as an adverse drug reaction following review of post-marketed data. Frequency has been determined from the incidence of reported adverse events of hepatic failure in patients receiving treatment in the open-label bicalutamide arm of the 150 mg EPC studies.

3. May be reduced by concomitant castration.

4. Observed in a pharmaco-epidemiology study of LHRH agonists and anti-androgens used in the treatment of prostate cancer. The risk appears to be increased when bicalutamide was used in combination with LHRH agonists but no increase in risk was evident when bicalutamide was used as a monotherapy to treat prostate cancer.

5. Listed as an adverse drug reaction following review of post-marketed data. Frequency has been determined from the incidence of reported adverse events of interstitial pneumonia in the randomised treatment period of the 150 mg EPC studies.
