Committee Recommendations (2)

03 Dec 25 - Surrey Heartlands Integrated Care System Area Prescribing Committee (APC)

The Surrey Heartlands Integrated Care System Area Prescribing Committee agreed the updated shared care for the treatment of Precocious Puberty and the PIL to support children and their families

14 May 25 - Surrey Heartlands Integrated Care System Area Prescribing Committee (APC)

During the process of reviewing drugs for inclusion on the Surrey Heartlands Joint Formulary, it was noted that Leuprorelin had not been included within the shared care arrangements for treatment of precocious puberty.

Leuprorelin did not have a license for this indication at the point of agreeing shared care for triptorelin. 

Leuprorelin is now licensed for precocious puberty and can be used in accordance with the shared care agreement.

The shared care document will be reviewed and updated.
