Product Description
Leuprolide Acetate is a potent LHRH (GnRH) agonist. After a transient increase, continuous administration of leuprolide results in downregulation of LH and FSH levels followed by a suppression of ovarian and testicular steroid biosynthesis. Studies with female Alzheimer patients indicate that application of leuprolide acetate in combination with an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor stabilizes the cognitive functions in mild-to-moderate cases.
