How Does RELUGOLIX 120 mg Work?

Relugolix 120 mg works by blocking GnRH receptors in the pituitary gland. This reduces the release of hormones that stimulate testosterone production in the testes. Since many prostate cancer cells depend on testosterone to grow, lowering testosterone levels helps slow the progression of the disease.
