Learn How to Mix and Administer LUPRON DEPOT
Download and print step-by-step mixing and administering instructions.
Because the dual-chamber syringe requires no external mixing, all mixing takes place within the prefilled syringe in 3 steps.1*
*Reconstitution and administration for injection of LUPRON DEPOT requires a total of 10 steps; of those, only 3 are for suspension mixing.
*Adapted from Section 2.5, steps 2-4 of the LUPRON DEPOT package insert:
Screw in plunger
To prepare for injection, screw the white plunger into the end stopper until tile stopper begins to turn.
Release diluent
Hold the syringe UPRIGHT. Release the diluent by SLOWLY PUSHING (6 to 8 seconds) the plunger until the first middle stopper is at the blue line in the middle of the barrel.
Mix powder
Keep the syringe UPRIGHT. Mix the microspheres (powder) thoroughly by gently shaking the syringe until the powder forms a uniform suspension. The suspension will appear milky. If the powder adheres to the stopper or caking/clumping is present, tap the syringe with your finger to disperse. DO NOT USE if any of the powder has not gone into suspension.1
