Overview Luprotas 22.5mg Injection

Goserelin acetate 22.5mg injection treats prostate cancer, endometriosis (excessive uterine lining growth causing pain, heavy/irregular bleeding), uterine fibroids, and central precocious puberty (early onset puberty). Administered subcutaneously by a healthcare professional, the dosage and frequency are determined by your physician based on your condition and may vary. Strictly adhere to your doctor's instructions; improper use can lead to severe adverse reactions. Therapeutic effects may take weeks or months; discontinue only upon medical advice. Common side effects include reduced libido, sweating, tiredness, muscle weakness, and hot flushes. Prolonged use can weaken bones; calcium and vitamin D supplementation is recommended. Amenorrhea (cessation of menstruation) for 7-12 weeks is expected; persistent bleeding warrants medical attention. Disclose alcohol consumption, smoking history, and osteoporosis before starting treatment. Inform your healthcare provider of all other medications, as interactions are possible. This injection is contraindicated during pregnancy and breastfeeding; reliable contraception is crucial for both partners throughout treatment.
