LHRH antagonist - degarellix
Anti androgenic- flutamide, bicalutamide
Bilateral orchidectomy

201
Q

LHRH agonists for prostate ca

A

E.g. buserelin, goserelin
Take a while to work
Reduce LH so less testosterone
When LHRH agonists are first given, testosterone levels go up briefly before falling to very low levels. This effect, called tumor flare, give antiandrogenz to counteract

202
Q

Degarelix
Works quickly
Increases LH so testosterone reduces due to negative feedback
GnRH blocker
When LHRH agonists are first given, testosterone levels go up briefly before falling to very low levels
