My dad has been prescribed abiraterone. He has Mets in spine, ribs, hips and scull. Initially he was taking 2 tablets of abiraterone a day for one month. Second month he was prescribed 3 tablets a day. Now the doctor has indicated to increase it to 4 tablets a day. Has any one else heard about it.My dad is buying this very expensive medicine from his pocket as he lives abroad. His Psa has only gone down to 67 from 92.

He should be taking 1000mg and also 5mg prednisone
