Description

Lupride Depot 3.75mg injection is a prescription medicine that contains Leuprorelin (also called leuprolide) as its active ingredient. It belongs to the class of medicines known as gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists. In men, it is mainly prescribed for the treatment of prostate cancer by lowering testosterone levels, which helps in slowing down the growth of cancer cells.

In women, Lupride Depot 3.75mg injection is used to manage uterine fibroids and endometriosis, conditions that often cause painful periods, excessive bleeding, and pelvic pain. Reducing estrogen levels helps control these symptoms. Additionally, this injection is prescribed in children to treat precocious puberty (very early puberty) by delaying further sexual development until the appropriate age.

This injection is administered only by a doctor or nurse in a hospital or clinic setting, and you should never attempt to self-inject it at home. The dosage and duration of treatment depend on your medical condition and response to therapy.

Before starting treatment with Lupride Depot 3.75mg injection, it is important to inform your doctor if you are pregnant, planning a pregnancy, or breastfeeding. This medicine should not be used during pregnancy unless specifically advised by the doctor.

You should also share your complete medical history, including any history of diabetes, heart disease, bone weakness (osteoporosis), or hormonal disorders. Regular medical check-ups and monitoring may be necessary during treatment to ensure the safe and effective use of this medicine.
