Info from Dr. John Hines whose doctorate is in pharmacology and was/is a Lupron
researcher:

I would not risk it; I've heard from those who saw it worsen adrenal disease, as had Mike
Janke (which is why he sought the information and carried the article in the first place) In
working with Mike each day on the FHL and then later on his Miami Ferret Forum when he
asked me to co-moderate that during his illness till he disbanded it due to spammers, we
talked together a lot and Mike was very worried by this med.
