What is Orgovyx used for?+
Orgovyx is prescribed for men with advanced prostate cancer or metastatic castration‑sensitive prostate cancer. It works as part of androgen‑deprivation therapy to lower testosterone levels, which helps slow tumor growth and disease progression.

Relugolix is a competitive antagonist of GnRH receptors in the pituitary gland. By blocking these receptors, it suppresses the release of luteinizing hormone and follicle‑stimulating hormone, which in turn reduces testosterone production, a key driver of prostate cancer cell growth.
What is the usual dose of Orgovix?+
The prescribed dose of Orgovyx is determined by the treating physician based on the patient’s clinical condition and therapeutic goals. Dosage decisions are individualized and should follow the prescriber’s instructions.
