Menopur How to Take

Menotropins are a mixture of naturally-occurring hormones that include follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH). Menotropins are used to help women with certain infertility problems to become pregnant. Menotropins work by stimulating the ovaries to produce eggs.

Menotropins are usually given with human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG). This hormone is also present in Menopur (Gonadotropins-human). It works similarly to LH and helps to ensure that ovulation occurs at the expected time.

Your doctor may have suggested Menopur (Gonadotropins-human) for conditions other than those listed in these drug information articles. If you have not discussed this with your doctor or are not sure why you are taking Menopur (Gonadotropins-human), speak to your doctor. Do not stop using Menopur (Gonadotropins-human) without consulting your doctor.

Do not give Menopur (Gonadotropins-human) to anyone else, even if they have the same symptoms as you do. It can be harmful for people to use Menopur (Gonadotropins-human) if their doctor has not prescribed it.

Menopur Dosage

The dose of menotropins will depend on your circumstances and needs. The recommended starting dose of menotropins is 225 IU injected under the skin daily for a maximum of 20 days. The dose may be adjusted according to your response, but should not exceed 450 IU.

Many things can affect the dose of medication that a person needs, such as body weight, other medical conditions, and other medications. If your doctor has recommended a dose different from the ones listed here, do not change the way that you are using the medication without consulting your doctor.

Menopur (Gonadotropins-human) is best injected under the skin of the lower abdomen a few inches below your navel. Each day, use the alternate side of your lower abdomen (e.g., left or right) to prevent soreness.

Your doctor or another health care professional will show you exactly how to mix and draw up the medication into the needles and how to inject it. Once the dose of medication has been prepared, it should be used immediately. Discard any unused material after use. Do not use your injectable solution if it appears cloudy, lumpy, or discoloured.

It is important that you follow the dosing schedule closely and keep all doctor's appointments. Your doctor will monitor how the ovaries are responding to the medication and frequent appointments will be necessary.

It is important to use Menopur (Gonadotropins-human) exactly as prescribed by your doctor. If you miss a dose, use it as soon as possible and continue with your regular schedule.
