Zoladex - 12 weeks or 3 months?

Hi Anna42 I was always concerned about the extra 3 days but I really don’t think it matters.  Zoladex (10.8) is supplied as a 12 week drug and once your surgery read the information they will probably agree.  

Thanks David - yep, they’ve just confirmed it should be 12 weeks. Hope you’re well and thanks for taking time to respond! 

We had the same issue with Prostap and after a few heated discussions our Oncologist emailed and said every 12 weeks . 

Hi Anna, my hubby was on 12 wks of Prostap and was told it was OK to have the injection 1 day either side if he couldn't have it on the actual day of the 12 wks, which happened on a few occasions, so saved us some anxiety.  Now he's been changed to 4 weekly Zoladex. There's only 1 nurse at our surgery authorised to give it so he has to fit in with her duty roster and this month it'll be 5 days late. Nobody there seems concerned about it though.

I was offered 3 locations where I could have the Zoladex LA injection, the hospital where I was diagnosed, my local hospital or at the GP’s surgery. Might be worth asking your specialist nurse contact for any options if you prefer it to be done on the day it’s due?
