Degarelix

Uses

Degarelix is used in the treatment of female infertility and prostate cancer.

How it Works

How Degarelix works Degarelix reduces the production of testosterone, a male hormone, in the body. This may slow or halt the spread and growth of prostate cancer cells that rely on testosterone for their development.

Side Effects

Common side effects of Degarelix include injection site reactions (pain, swelling, redness), weight gain, hot flashes, increased liver enzymes, pain, erythema (skin redness), swelling, induration (hardening of normally soft tissue or organ), nodules, fatigue, high blood pressure, back pain, joint pain, and urinary tract infections.

Expert Advice

  • Degarelix is used in the treatment of advanced hormone-dependent prostate cancer.
  • It is administered by injection under the skin (subcutaneously), typically in the abdominal area.
  • Potential side effects include dizziness and blurred vision.
  • Do not drive or engage in activities requiring mental focus until you understand how Degarelix affects you.
  • Hot flashes may occur; consider wearing loose clothing and avoiding alcohol, caffeine, and spicy foods.
  • Inform your doctor if you have diabetes or issues with your heart, kidneys, or liver.
  • Your doctor may monitor the level of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) in your blood.
  • A decrease in PSA levels typically indicates that the treatment is effective.
