Hello,

Thanks for writing to us for your health concerns. I can understand your problems and will try our best to solve your problems out
First of all its sad to know that you have been suffering from health issue.


Mam Lupron gonadotrophin injections can cause chills and sweats but is rare. We need to examine him once if he has fever, nausea, vomiting, generalised body pains or any other symptoms which could be co-incidental viral fever rather than side effect of drug. Kindly give us history if he have it. If it's viral fever then it will subside with any antiviral antibiotics. Feel free to ask any questions. For now he can take paracetamol tablet if fever persist.


I hope this info helps you sort out your problems and if you feel its helpful kindly give me user thank vote happy health!
