Hi,
There is no gross interaction between Lupron and the drops howe'ver nausea is a common side effect of Lupron. You can try elevating the head and however if it's too troublesome, there are a number of drugs that can be used to relieve his nausea like ondansetron, domperidone etc. You can ask his doctor for a prescription.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
