Common alternative to leuprolide for prostate cancer (often combined with bicalutamide for combined androgen blockade) and used in premenopausal breast cancer.

If you take Zoladex regularly and are considering at-home ketamine therapy, the combination is generally safe at therapeutic doses. This page covers the brief pharmacologic context and what we do at intake.
