Product Introduction
Eugon XP 225IU Injection contains the active substance Menotrophin. It is an ovulation stimulator that belongs to the group of medications called gonadotropins. It is a highly purified mixture of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH). These are natural hormones produced in both males and females. They help the reproductive organs to function normally. Eugon XP 225IU Injection is used to treat infertility in women who are not ovulating, including those with polycystic ovarian disease, and who have not responded to treatment with another medicine called clomiphene citrate. It is also used to help develop multiple follicles and, therefore, to promote fertility in women undergoing IVF (in-vitro fertilization) or other types of assisted conception. It is also indicated to treat infertility in men due to low sperm count. Do not take Eugon XP 225IU Injection if you are allergic to menotrophin or any of the other ingredients of this medicine. Do not take this medicine if you have a tumour in the pituitary gland (a gland located at the base of the brain which produces certain hormones, including growth hormones) or in the hypothalamus (an area located beneath the part of the brain called the thalamus which controls conditions within your body including body temperature and blood pressure) or in the uterus, ovaries, breast, testicles, or in the prostate gland. Before starting treatment, you will be checked for underactive thyroid problems, hormone levels, and tumours of the pituitary and hypothalamus. Do not take this medicine if you have ovarian cysts that are not due to PCOD, vaginal bleeding, early menopause, physical problems in the reproductive organs, if your womb has been removed, and if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Inform your physician immediately if you experience any of these symptoms, such as abdominal pain and swelling, weight gain, diarrhoea, difficulty in breathing, and decreased urination. Inform your physician if you have or have had liver problems or a history of blood clotting disease before starting treatment.
Uses
Infertility in men and women
How it works
In the absence of sufficient endogenous luteinizing hormone (LH), Eugon XP 225IU Injection bind to the follicle stimulating hormone receptor (FSH), resulting in ovulation. It also attaches to the LH receptor, causing appropriate hormone release and treats infertility in women and men.
How to Use
It will be given to you by a doctor or nurse in a hospital or clinic setting. It is given as an intramuscular injection (into your muscles) or under the skin. Do not self-administer the injection. Your doctor will decide the dose, route of administration and duration of the treatment based on your disease severity, body weight, and other factors.
Side Effects
Side effects are unwanted symptoms caused by medicines. Even though all drugs cause side effects, not everyone gets them. Common Abdominal pain or swelling Headache Nausea Pelvic pain Overstimulation of ovaries Pain or inflammation at the injection site Mood swings Serious Severe allergic reactions (hypersensitivity reactions)
Expert Tips
If you have missed any dosing appointments, inform your doctor and schedule immediately. This medicine can increase your risk of ectopic pregnancy (pregnancy outside of the womb) if you have a history of fallopian tube disease, miscarriage, multiple pregnancies (twins and triplets), and birth defects in the baby. Your doctor will regularly perform ultrasound scans and blood tests to monitor your response to the treatment.
