Hello,

We have a pt that will be starting HBO with the indication of Radiation cystitis secondary to ionizing radiation to his bladder. He has been taking Orgovyx (Lupron) for 8 months and will be continuing for about another year. We were wondering if there are any contraindications?

Thank you for any information...

Lisa,

Good morning, and thank you for reaching out to us. I do not find any literature suggesting that would raise concern or indicate that the concomitant use of Orgovyx (Lupron) and HBOT would pose a relative contraindication or give rise to concerns. I have attached the highlights of the prescribing information. Please let us know if you have any additional thoughts or questions.

Have a great day!
