Deslorlin is available in a short acting form for horses, but the long
acting implant is not FDA approved yet.  Thus the implant that we would
use for ferrets is not available here in the US yet.  As Mike said if
the ferret does not respond to Lupron it will probably not respond to
the Deslorlin implant either.  What dose of Lupron and melatonin are
you using?  Some ferrets only respond to a high dose of Lupron.
 
Hope that helps,
Jerry Murray, DVM
