Can Honvan Cause Severe Gastritis, Nausea, Bloating, Constipation And Anal Bleeding?

Hi, my father has been diagnosed with metastatic prostate cancer to the bone. He was earlier on bicalutamide which was deemed ineffective after 8 months. As the second line of ADT approach, he was recently prescribed the 3X dose of Honvan. After taking this med for 2 days, he developed severe gastric issues, nausea, bloating, constipation etc. He had anal bleeding and had a history of piles 2 decades ago. Now, he is worried that the piles issue has recurred. He had discontinued Honvan for the last two days and has to wait another week before he meets with his oncologist. He is not sure if he can use Anovate cream to ease his irritation in the rectum, and use Daflon tab to handle the bleeding. I would appreciate a response. Thx.
