Overview Luprodex 3M 11.25mg Injection

Triptorelin 11.25mg injection (Luprodex 3M equivalent) is indicated for prostate cancer management. It's also employed in treating endometriosis (excessive uterine lining growth causing pain, heavy/irregular menstruation), uterine fibroids, and central precocious puberty (abnormally early puberty). Administration is subcutaneous, by a healthcare professional. Dosage and frequency are determined by your physician, depending on your condition, and may adjust over time. Strict adherence to your doctor's instructions is vital; incorrect usage or overdose risks severe adverse reactions. Therapeutic benefits might not appear for weeks or months; discontinue only under medical guidance. Common side effects include reduced sex drive, increased perspiration, tiredness, muscle weakness, and hot flushes. Prolonged use can weaken bones, decreasing bone density; calcium and vitamin D supplementation is recommended. Amenorrhea (absence of menstruation) for 7-12 weeks is expected; persistent bleeding requires medical attention. Prior to treatment, disclose any history of alcohol consumption, smoking, or osteoporosis. Inform your healthcare provider of all other medications you're taking due to potential drug interactions. This injection is contraindicated during pregnancy and breastfeeding; reliable contraception is essential for both partners throughout the treatment period.
