Hi! I sent the article by Wendy Bedwell-Wilson, that is in the Feb online Ferrets Magazine..(I miss the 'real thing':() to my local exotic Vet. She gave some of my ferrets the first depo Lupron shots in this area in 1991. I was curious on her opinion on this product.... -Dear Joan, I have 2 of the implants but it is very hard to get them right now. I am sad that no one mentioned that Dr Shoemaker in the Netherlands has done all of the work with the drug. It is a long acting depo lupron which is what I started using before anyone else and NO you should not do sx on these wonderful guys! Thanks for letting me know what people are saying. I had someone want the drug this week and acted like everyone should have it! Add the cost of a plane fare and the hassle getting into the USA with it and then you can see that it becomes very expensive. thanks again, DrO- Thought I'd share....
