Lupron vs. Degarelix

Because of the interest recently in Lupron, here's a study comparing it to the new drug Degarelix.  It gives all of the information related to "lupron flare" and how long lupron takes to send your PSA to its nadir.  The study also shows the same thing for Degarelix.

I dont have that study, but if you are considering Degarelix, you might be interested in looking at the "full prescribing information" which you can get by clicking on this link and then clicking, to the right, on "full prescribing information."
