MCP for prostate

Has anyone used modified citrus pectin (MCP) as a complementary medicine alongside hormone therapy for prostate cancer? I’m on the latter & wanted to ensure it won’t interfere with the hormone treatment. Thanks.

    We have some information about modified citrus pectin (MCP) on our website that you might find useful. 

    If you decide this is something you want to try, then we'd encourage you to let your specialist nurse or consultant know so that they are aware you are using complementary medicine alongside your hormone therapy. 

    If you want to chat things through with one of our nurses you're welcome to call them on 0808 800 4040.
