Agotrig 0.1mg injection exerts its therapeutic effect by suppressing the release of luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) through its action on the pituitary gland.

By reducing the levels of these hormones, this medication is beneficial in treating hormone-dependent conditions such as prostate cancer, breast cancer, and endometriosis.
