A member asked:

My son had an allergic reaction (severe rash & hives) to a supprelin implant. is it likely he will react to lupron-depot too?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Maybe...but unsure.: Supprelin la (histrelin) is a Histrelin Acetate implant; whereas Lupron depot is a Leuprolide Acetate suspension. Obviously there is worthwhile concern on your part about this alternative therapy for central precocious puberty in that both medications act to suppress development of puberty artificially. Regardless, the best source of information on this matter is your son's endocrinologist. Contact her today.
