About this active substance
Relugolix is a medication used to treat hormonal conditions such as advanced prostate cancer or uterine fibroids. It is a gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) receptor antagonist that reduces the production of testosterone or estrogen, thereby slowing disease progression.
The medication is taken orally, usually in tablet form, and should be used as directed by your doctor. It is important to follow the prescribed dosage and undergo regular check-ups to monitor the effects of the treatment.
Side effects may include hot flashes, fatigue, headaches, or decreased bone mineral density. In rare cases, severe adverse effects such as liver function impairment may occur, requiring immediate medical attention.
Patients should inform their doctor about any other medications being used or pre-existing conditions, such as osteoporosis or liver diseases, to ensure the safe use of relugolix.
