as the #1* prescribed treatment for kids with CPP

*Data sourced as of February 2023.

LUPRON DEPOT-PED helps control Central Precocious Puberty (CPP) by stopping the release of hormones that cause puberty.

LUPRON DEPOT-PED is:

A gonadotropin-releasing hormone, or GnRH, agonist. It works by helping the pituitary gland ignore signals from the brain. This, in turn, stops the release of sex hormones that cause puberty
The #1^† prescribed treatment for CPP by doctors in the US and has been used for over 30 years to help control early puberty
An intramuscular injection administered at the doctor’s office

^†Data sourced as of February 2023.

LUPRON DEPOT-PED treats CPP

In a study of 1-month dosing,^‡ LUPRON DEPOT-PED provided control by pausing early puberty within 4 weeks.

96.4% of children achieved suppression of a reproductive hormone.^§
Suppression means either pausing puberty with no changes or reversing the signs of puberty.

^‡The study included 55 children (49 females and 6 males) with CPP treated with LUPRON DEPOT-PED for an average of 3.9 years who were then followed after treatment for an average of 3.5 years.

^§Mean peak luteinizing hormone.

While on treatment, your child’s physical signs of early puberty should be paused.

Genital and breast development should stop or reverse. Your child’s growth should slow down to a rate that is normal for their age.

During 5 years of treatment, 66.7%–90.6% of females had suppression of breast development
During 5 years of treatment, 60%–100% of males had suppression of genitalia development

LUPRON DEPOT-PED was also studied as 3-month and 6-month dosing schedules and provided control, pausing early puberty within 4 weeks in children with CPP. Talk to your child’s doctor about what dose and schedule is best for your child.

Talk to your child’s pediatric endocrinologist about when it's appropriate for your child to start and stop treatment.

The pediatric endocrinologist can help decide what treatment plan may work best for your child’s specific needs.

In nearly 9 out of 10 children taking 1-month LUPRON DEPOT-PED, reproductive hormones returned to puberty levels within 6 months of stopping treatment

LUPRON DEPOT-PED is the only CPP treatment that has a long‑term, 18-year safety study.

LUPRON DEPOT-PED offers flexible dosing.

Only LUPRON DEPOT-PED has 6 dosing options

How the dosing options work

Your child’s doctor decides on the appropriate starting dose for your child
The doctor checks hormone levels at the appropriate time based on the dosing schedule
If the hormone levels are reduced, the doctor may change how often your child gets an injection
If the hormone levels are not reduced, the doctor may change how much medicine is given and/or how often your child gets an injection

Your child’s pediatric endocrinologist will monitor your child’s progress. If hormone and clinical suppression are not achieved with the starting dose, they may need to adjust the dose. The dose may also need to be adjusted as your child’s body weight changes.
