One month of Orgovyx completed

So is the decision to go on Lupron instead of Orgovyx often primarily an economic one? I was not aware of that to be honest.

Is there any case where Lupron may be the better product?

Likely economics, in some cases, is a factor. The manufacturer does have a financial aid program.
One advantage Lupron has is patient compliance.........one shot and got for 1-3 months vs a daily pill. That advantage also serves as a disadvantage in that the patient has no control over the ADT regime.

Lupron might be the "better" choice for patients who aren't compliant with taking oral meds.
