LUCRIN

Lucrin Information

Lucrin is a drug that can be included in the hormone inhibitor class. It acts by blocking the production of some hormones from the testes, being basically a synthetic form of the naturally occurring gonadotropin releasing hormone. By its inhibitory action, Lucrin can stop or slow the growth of some forms of cancers, such as prostate cancer.

Lucrin Indications

Available only with a doctor's prescription, Lucrin is mainly used in the treatment of some forms of cancer, such as prostate cancer. Of course, it can be prescribed for the treatment of other illnesses as well, so if you want to find out exactly why you have been prescribed treatment with this drug, ask your personal health care specialist. Lucrin should not be prescribed for the treatment of children. At the beginning of the treatment, there may appear an increase in the pain caused by the temporary increase of some hormones, or an increase in other symptoms of the cancer. Should you experience this, contact your personal health care specialist.

Lucrin Warnings

Lucrin should never be prescribed to patients who have shown to have any kind of adverse or allergic reactions to similar drugs, or to any of the ingredients in Lucrin. If you are taking Lucrin for the first time, and develop any of the following symptoms:

• shortness of breath, wheezing or difficulty breathing
• swellings of the face, tongue, lips or mouth
• rashes, itches or hives

It is very likely that you have an allergic reaction to this drug, and should immediately contact your personal health care specialist or seek emergency medical attention at the nearest hospital.
Ensure that your prescribing doctor is familiar with your entire medical history, as some medical conditions (for example if the cancer has spread to the spine, or if you experience difficult or painful urination) may prevent you from starting treatment with Lucrin. Lucrin may cause infertility in men. Tests have shown short time treatments to cause temporary infertility, while long term treatments may result in permanent infertility.
