Medicine Approved for
Prostate Enlargement
The U.S. Food and Drug Ad
ministration (FDA) recently ap
proved finasteride ( Proscar ) for
the symptomatic relief o f benign
enlargement (hyperplasia) o f the
prostate, a condition which affects
approximately 60 percent o f all
men over the age of 50. Finasteride,
which is not for use in women or
children, is the first drug specifi
cally approved by the FDA for
prostate enlargement.
Benign prostatic hyperplasia
(BPH) tends to occur slowly and is
thought to be a reaction to hor
monal changes associated with
aging. The prostate gets larger and
may block the urethra (the tube
leading from the bladder to the
penis). The flow o f urine from the
bladder may be obstructed. Symp
toms o f BPH include difficulty
urinating, feelings o f incomplete
bladder emptying, and an urgency
to urinate.
Enlargement o f the prostate has
been associated with the presence
of dihydrotestosterone. Finasteride
causes the prostate to shrink in size
due to its ability to prevent the
con version o f testosterone to
dihydrotestosterone. In order for
this reaction to occur, an enzyme,
5-alpha reductase, must be present.
Finasteride interferes with this en
zyme, thus minimizing dihydro
testosterone production. In some
patients, more than six m onths
of therapy may be required to re
duce the size o f an enlarged prostate
and improve urine flow.
lone Cards lost to Colton
By Anne Morter
The lone Cardinals got an
opening game reality check from
the visiting Colton Vikings last
Friday evening, Dec. 4, as the
Vikings raced to a 61-43 victory.
Colton hit the floor with a
quick moving offense and a very
tough in-your-face defense to
overwhelm the Cards in the ear
ly going and coast home with the
win.
The Cards had just one three-
point bucket in the first quarter
and managed just 16 points in the
first half. The ball finally began
to drop for the Cards in the fourth
quarter but by then it was too lit
tle and too late.
Jim Logan led the lone scorers
with 11 points. Kevin Kofstad of
Colton was the game’s high
scorer with 25 points. Aaron
Heideman paced the Cardinals re
bounding effort with 10 boards.
Logal tallied four steals and
David Wagenblast had three
assists in the game.
The Cards were ice cold from
the floor where they hit just 16
of 56 for 29 percent. Colton shot
26 of 54 for 48 percent. At the
line, lone was nine of 15 for 60
percent and the Vikings were
eight of 12 for 67 percent.
“ We ran into a buzzsaw,”
noted coach Del LaRue. “ Colton
was very, very quick and they
played very good in-your-face
defense.” He noted that the Car
dinals couldn't handle the
pressure and had trouble hanging
onto the ball. “ When we did
catch it, we couldn’t hit the
basket,” he added.
The Cardinals travel to Condon
for the annual Condon Christmas
Tournament this weekend.
Lady Cards fall to Vikings
By Anne Morter
The lone Lady Cardinals made
a good showing in their first
outing of the season but their in
experience caught up with them
in the end as they fell to the
visiting Colton Vikings, 45-50
Friday night, Dec. 4.
The Cardinals led by as much
as six points in the third quarter
but Colton grabbed the momen
tum and three lone starters were
forced to the bench with five
fouls, and the younger Cardinals
couldn’t hold off the surging
Vikings.
Tanya Anderson led the Car
dinal scorers with nine points,
while Crystal Minster, Kim
Bedortha and April Taylor each
added seven. Sadie Blodgett of
Colton led all scorers with 15
