Administration summary
Fensolvi is administered by a healthcare professional as a 45 mg single subcutaneous injection once every six months. [1]
Fensolvi is administered subcutaneously, where it forms a solid in situ, trapping the leuprolide acetate within the biodegradable polymer matrix. The polymeric gel dissolves over time, resulting in sustained and consistent release of leuprolide acetate over the six-month dosing period. [1]
Subcutaneous injection


Subcutaneous injection
As with other drugs administered by subcutaneous injection, the injection site should vary periodically. The most commonly used injection sites are buttocks and upper thighs.
The specific injection location should not have excessive pigment, nodules, lesions, or hair. Areas with brawny or fibrous subcutaneous tissue or locations that could be rubbed or compressed (i.e., by a belt or clothing waistband) should be avoided. [1]
Fensolvi is prefilled and supplied in two separate, sterile syringes whose contents are reconstituted.
