A member asked:
Can you take depo-provera lupron for prostate cancer while on coumadin (warfarin)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: There is not an interaction between these drugs. One must be careful with the injection of leuprolide when one is on blood thinners to make certain no bleeding occurs. Eligard is a form of leuprolide given sq rather than im which may lessen bleeding risks at administration.
