1
UNII 37JNS02E7V - LEUPROLIDE ACETATE
 

Leuprorelin is inactive when given orally due to poor membrane permeability and an almost complete inactivation by intestinal proteolytic enzymes. Leuprorelin has potent LHRH agonist properties when given during short-term and intermittent therapy, however, when administered in a continuous, nonpulsatile manner, LHRH analogs induce inhibition of gonadotropin secretion and suppression of testicular steroidogenesis.
