• LUPROTAS 22.5 INJECTION is a medication that works by reducing the production of certain hormones in the body, specifically testosterone or estrogen. The hormone it targets depends on the specific condition being treated. By lowering these hormone levels, LUPROTAS 22.5 INJECTION can effectively slow down the growth of cancerous cells in hormone-sensitive cancers. This mechanism is crucial in managing and controlling the progression of the disease.
• In the case of uterine fibroids, LUPROTAS 22.5 INJECTION helps to shrink the size of these non-cancerous growths in the uterus. Reduced estrogen levels lead to the fibroids becoming smaller, which can alleviate symptoms such as heavy bleeding, pelvic pain, and pressure on the bladder or bowel. This can significantly improve a woman's quality of life.
• For women suffering from endometriosis, LUPROTAS 22.5 INJECTION provides relief by reducing the symptoms associated with this condition, such as pain, inflammation, and irregular bleeding. Endometriosis involves the growth of uterine-like tissue outside the uterus, and reducing estrogen levels helps to suppress the growth and activity of this tissue.
• In children experiencing early onset of puberty (precocious puberty), LUPROTAS 22.5 INJECTION helps to delay further development by suppressing the production of sex hormones. This allows children to develop at a more normal pace and avoid the emotional and psychological distress associated with premature puberty.

• LUPROTAS 22.5 INJECTION is typically administered via subcutaneous injection, meaning it's injected just beneath the skin. The common injection sites include the upper arm, thigh, or abdomen. This medication is administered by a qualified healthcare professional to ensure proper technique and safety.
• Self-administration of LUPROTAS 22.5 INJECTION is strongly discouraged. Your doctor or nurse will give you the injection, and they will also monitor you for any potential side effects or complications.
• The precise dosage and frequency of LUPROTAS 22.5 INJECTION administration will be determined by your physician based on your individual medical condition, its severity, and your response to the treatment. It's crucial to adhere to the prescribed schedule and dosage for optimal results. Do not miss any scheduled appointments for your injections. If you have any concerns or questions about the injection process or dosage, please consult with your healthcare provider.
