Both drugs work very similarly. While Firmagon is good for the very first shot, you should find no difference between that and a three month Lupron shot Orgovyx.

Zytiga gave me high blood pressure and four afib Events the last one letting me on the hospital for four days. I was on Lupron for a couple of years after and now on Orgovyx. I do not understand why he is reticent about moving to Lupron or Orgovyx.

I’ve been on ADT for nine years 6 1/2 on Lupron and 2 1/2 on Orgovyx. Neither of them ever caused me any heart issues.

Thanks! Were you stage 4 from the beginning?

While seeing the oncologist and pharmacist lady before the chemo today, my husband said he's not sure it's working because "he's doing extremely well" the pharmacist lady was quick to say it's working or he'd be dead by now!
