Azagly-nafarelin, sold under the brand name Gonazon, is a gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRH agonist) medication which is used in veterinary medicine in Europe.[1][2] It is a GnRH analogue and a synthetic peptide, specifically a decapeptide.[1][2][3] The medication has been approved in Europe as a solid silicone-based matrix implant for use as a contraceptive in animals such as male dogs, cats, and others, but is no longer or was never commercially available.[1][2][4][5] The medication has also been used to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia in animals.[6][7] In addition to its use in mammals, azagly-nafarelin has been approved for use in aquaculture fish, specifically to control ovulation in salmonids, and was the first GnRH agonist to be available for use in fish.[2][8] It was introduced for use by 2005.[9]
