Overview[edit]

Ganirelix, also marketed as Antagon, and the active ingredient in Orgalutran, is a drug that is sometimes used to regulate pituitary hormone secretions in women undergoing fertility treatment ^[1]. It allows the regular timing of the surges of hormones involved in the Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Gonadal axis to be controlled exogenously. Ganirelix is a competitive gonadotropin releasing hormone ^[1].
