I have had excellent results with 1 mg (1000 mcg) of the four month Lupron. Some ferrets may require more and you *might* be able to get away with slightly less. I've had good results with as little as 150 mcg of the one month Lupron. You would need 600 mcg of the four month Lupron to equal that amount.

I had one ferret that needed 300 mcg of the one month to get results, but after two months of that amount, 150 mcg seemed to maintain him well.
