No interaction proved by medical research so far...
Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX
I am sorry for the situation you are in.
So far, none of ingredients in the supplement you were taking prior to Lupron injection have no interaction with Lupron.
However, once you notice anything unusual while on Lupron shots, please, stop taking any other medication and report to your healthcare provider as soon as possible.
Hope it answered to your queries!
