what is 'leuprolide acetate'?

Definition for Leuprolide acetate

Leuprorelin ( INN ) or leuprolide acetate ( USAN ) is a gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist ( GnRH agonist ). Proper Sequence: p-Glu-His-Trp-Ser-Tyr-D-Leu-Leu-Arg-Pro-NHEt

By causing constant stimulation of the pituitary GnRH receptors, leuprolide initially causes stimulation (flare), but thereafter decreases pituitary secretion ( downregulation ) of the gonadotropins luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH).
