Hi Sandi,
What you have is a bottle of the ONCE A DAY
version of Lupron. Quite obviously most people do
not want a once a day injection when they can have
a once a month, or once every 3 months, or once every
4 months injection (or an once a year implant). Not to
mention that most people do not remember to give it
every day.
I do not think your ferrets want a daily injection either,
but it will work if giving daily to them.
Yes, Lupron is a human drug, and it is expensive drug.
Lets hope a veterinary GnRH agonist makes it the market soon!
Hope that helps answer your question,
Jerry Murray, DVM
