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.

How LEUXA 11.25MG INJ Works
LEUXA operates as a gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) analog. It acts by lowering certain hormone levels in the body, making it effective for treating hormone-dependent cancers and conditions such as prostate cancer, endometriosis, uterine fibroids, and precocious puberty. This mechanism helps control abnormal cell growth and manage related symptoms.
Safe and Supervised Administration
LEUXA 11.25MG INJ must be administered as an intramuscular injection by a qualified healthcare professional. The medication is supplied as a lyophilized powder, which should be reconstituted with the provided ampoule immediately before injection. Following prescribed dosage and medical supervision ensures efficacy and helps minimize adverse effects.
Usage, Storage, and Handling
This injection is designed for single-use only and is intended for adult patients unless prescribed otherwise for specific indications. LEUXA should be stored below 25C, away from light, and never frozen. Proper handling and storage are essential to maintain the medication's effectiveness and safety over its 2-year shelf life.
