Could Lucrin Depot 3.75mg that is available in Lithuania for human
consumption be used for example for a month or longer to confirm the
diagnosis and than if so to go for a surgery?

If you wouldn't say that it is an absolutely crazy idea and this
could be done than how to apply the human medicine for a ferret?
Shall the dose remain the same? It comes into a form like it is here:

**Looks like that's the same medicine as Lupron, just with a different name.
Sure, it could be used, but it sounds pretty classic from what you've
described and surgery will likely be the best way to go. Same dosing.**




We also have dog Suprelorin implants available, however I do not
think it is a good option for the moment.

**I wish we had those approved in the US. May I ask why it's not a good
option for this ferret? It's a great drug for adrenal disease in ferrets.**
