Gonadorelin is a gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRH agonist) which is used in fertility medicine and to treat amenorrhea and hypogonadism .[2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] It is also used in veterinary medicine .[3] [5] The medication is a form of the endogenous GnRH and is identical to it in chemical structure .[2] [3] [5] [7] It is given by injection into a blood vessel or fat or as a nasal spray .[5] [1] [7]
Medical uses [ edit ]
Gonadorelin is used as a diagnostic agent to assess pituitary gland function.[1] It is also used in the treatment of primary hypothalamic amenorrhea , hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (e.g., Kallmann syndrome ), delayed puberty , cryptorchidism , and infertility .[7] [8] [1] Unlike other GnRH analogues, it is not used to suppress sex hormone production.[9]
Available forms [ edit ]
Gonadorelin is available in a portable infusion pump that provides pulsatile subcutaneous administration of the drug.[7] [8] The usual dosage delivered is 5 to 20 μg of gonadorelin per pulse every 90 to 120 minutes.[7] [8] It is also available in solution form for intravenous or subcutaneous injection and as a nasal spray .[7]
Pharmacology [ edit ]
Pharmacodynamics [ edit ]
Gonadorelin is an agonist of the GnRH receptor and is used to induce the secretion of the gonadotropins follicle-stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone from the pituitary gland and to increase sex hormone production by the gonads .[7] [8]
Pharmacokinetics [ edit ]
Gonadorelin has a distribution half-life of 2 to 10 minutes and a very short terminal half-life of 10 to 40 minutes.[1] It is metabolized by hydrolysis into smaller peptide components.[1]
History [ edit ]
Gonadorelin was available for medical use, under the brand name Factrel, as early as 1978.[10]
Society and culture [ edit ]
Generic names [ edit ]
Gonadorelin is the generic name of the drug and its INN Tooltip International Nonproprietary Name , BAN Tooltip British Approved Name , and JAN Tooltip Japanese Accepted Name , while gonadorelina is its DCIT Tooltip Denominazione Comune Italiana and gonadoréline is its DCF Tooltip Dénomination Commune Française . The diacetate salt is known as gonadorelin acetate and this is its USAN Tooltip United States Adopted Name , BANM Tooltip British Approved Name , and JAN Tooltip Japanese Accepted Name , while the hydrochloride salt is known as gonadorelin hydrochloride and this is its USAN Tooltip United States Adopted Name and BANM Tooltip British Approved Name .[2] [3] [5]
