I'm in the Philippines and I've asked a doctor friend of mine about
Lupron, but she doesn't know about the drug. Perhaps the drug is not
available yet, or at best, limited in availability in this country.

I did a search on Google using "Lupron Philippines" and found after
much review a post by a woman in the Philippines that had used Lupron
for her endometriosis. She paid p7400 for her shot - but don't know
what strength/dosage it was. Probably not "Lupron Depot"- 30mg. Have
no way of getting in contact with her.

At that price you mentioned (3/4 of a month's salarly for most), it
does make it look like Lupron is not widely available in the
Philippines. I'll see what other doctor friends and acquaintances here
know about the drug.
