Yes,the right deslorelin/ Suprelorlin IS available in Australia as well as in
Europe where Dr. Nico Schoemaker of the Netherlands has pursued some
studies on its use in ferrets. In fact, it's made in Australia.
The right form has not yet been okayed for non-experimental use in the
U.S.

will help you find what you want to read.
The work of Dr. Bob Wagner on that med will also be of use to you.
