Description

Interpreter Notes

Interpreters should be aware that Flutamide may be referred to as a hormone therapy in some contexts. It is important to maintain a formal register and avoid colloquial terms. Common alternatives may include 'antiandrógeno', but it is recommended to use 'Flutamida' in clinical settings.
