Product Description
Active Ingredient: Leuprolide acetate (11.25 mg).
Form: It is an injection (depot suspension) that is administered by a healthcare professional either under the skin (subcutaneously) or into a muscle (intramuscularly). The 11.25 mg dose is often a 3-month formulation.
Mechanism of Action: It works by initially stimulating, then suppressing the production of hormones (testosterone in men, estrogen in women) produced by the body, which slows the growth of hormone-sensitive cells and tissues.
Uses
Leuxa 11.25 mg injection is used for treating several hormone-dependent conditions, including managing symptoms of advanced prostate cancer by lowering testosterone levels, which slows the growth of cancer cells. In women, it helps reduce estrogen production to relieve pain and other symptoms of endometriosis and to shrink uterine fibroids. It is also prescribed for children with precocious puberty to delay the process and allow for more normal growth. Additionally, it may be used in fertility treatments to control hormone levels.
Common Side Effects
Common side effects may include hot flashes, increased sweating, decreased libido, dizziness, headaches, nausea, vomiting, upset stomach, injection site reactions, fatigue, and muscle weakness. Long-term use can potentially lead to bone thinning (osteoporosis), and doctors might suggest calcium and vitamin D supplements.
