Did the nurse give me a good dose of Firmagon?
Hi the nurse was to give a second dose of the drug firmagon 80 mg but that was not in the pharmacy 80 mg I took 120 mg and 3 ml and from this she had to make 80 mg. (she mixed the drug and made 2 ml of it and gave it) is this the correct calculation for 80 mg of the drug? In addition, after the second time, a red spot and pain appeared.

Firmagon 120 mg contains a vial of the medicine and a syringe of solvent. In a properly prepared drug, 40 mg of degarelix is obtained in each 1 ml of solution. Taking 2 ml means taking 80 mg of degarelix: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/29898/firmagon-iniekcja/ulotka/143607 One of the side effects of the drug may be, for example, swelling and soreness at the application site. I encourage you to report this fact at the next medical consultation and to report the occurrence of an adverse reaction. Reporting side effects allows you to increase control over medicines available on the market. We wrote about how and why to report side effects in the article: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jak-i-dlaczego-zglaszac-dzialania-niepozadane
