Buserelin is a Gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRH agonist). The drug’s effects are dependent on the frequency and time course of administration. GnRH is released in a pulsatile fashion in the postpubertal adult. Initial interaction of any GnRH agonist such as buserelin with the GnRH receptor induces release of FSH and LH by gonadotrophes.
