Product Description

Eurolide 1mg Injection is a hormone therapy containing the active constituent leuprolide acetate. It is used to treat prostate cancer in men. Cancer is a disorder in which cells multiply in an uncontrolled and abnormal manner. This medicine is used to treat hormone-responsive breast cancer, uterine fibroids (noncancerous growths of the uterus) and endometriosis in women. Endometriosis is a painful illness in which the tissue that normally lines the inside of the uterus grows outside of your uterus. 

Eurolide 1mg Injection is also used in the treatment of central precocious puberty (a child’s body begins to change into an adult too soon caused by a release of certain hormones) in children. Talk to your doctor if you have diabetes, heart disorders, depression, or if you are at increased risk of thinning of bones (osteoporosis) which can be caused due to excessive alcohol consumption, smoking heavily, taking steroids for a long time, or epilepsy. 

It is contraindicated in pregnant and breastfeeding women and patients with abnormal vaginal bleeding. If you are a woman of child-bearing age, use non-hormonal contraceptives while taking Eurolide 1mg Injection. If you are a man with urinary obstruction or had an operation to remove your testicles, you should tell your doctor.
