Drug Interactions

Tell your doctor if you are taking, have recently taken or might take any other medicines. • If you use this medicine with other medicines which help ovulation (such as hCG or clomiphene citrate), this may increase the response of your follicles. • If you use this medicine at the same time as a gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist or antagonist (these medicines reduce your sex hormone levels and stop you ovulating) you may need a higher dose of follitropin alfa to produce follicles.

Indication

In adult women, it is used: • To help release an egg from the ovary (ovulation) in women that cannot ovulate and that did not respond to treatment with a medicine called clomiphene citrate . • Together with another medicine called lutropin alfa (luteinising hormone or LH) to help release egg from the ovary (ovulation) in women whose body is producing very little gonadotropins (FSH and LH).• To help develop several follicles (each containing an egg) in women undergoing assisted reproductive technology procedures (procedures that may help you to become pregnant) such as in vitro fertilisation, gamete intra-fallopian transfer or zygote intra-fallopian transfer. In adult men, it is used: • Together with another medicine called human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) to help produce sperm in men that are infertile due to a low level of certain hormones.

When not to Use

If you are allergic to follicle stimulating hormone or any of the other ingredients . If you have a tumour in your hypothalamus or pituitary gland (both are parts of the brain). if you are a woman : with large ovaries or sacs of fluids within the ovaries (ovarian cysts) of unknown origin . With unexplained vaginal bleeding. With cancer in your ovaries, womb or breasts. With a condition that usually makes normal pregnancy impossible, such as ovarian failure (early menopause), or malformed reproductive organs. If you are a man : with damaged testicles that cannot be healed .

Gonadopin Injection Precautions

If you had in the past or recently blood clots in the leg or in the lung, or a heart attack or stroke, or if those happened in your family, then you might have a higher risk that these problems occur or become worse with follitropin alfa treatment.

Gonadopin Injection Warnings

Warning 1

Tell your doctor before you start treatment, if you or any member of your family have porphyria (an inability to break down porphyrins that may be passed on from parents to children).

Warning 2

Ovarian hyper-stimulation syndrome (OHSS) : If you are a woman, this medicine increases your risk of developing OHSS. This is when your follicles develop too much and become large cysts. If you get lower abdominal pain, gain any weight rapidly, feel sick or are vomiting or if you have difficulty in breathing, talk to your doctor straight away who might ask you to stop using this medicine .

Warning 3

Multiple pregnancy : When using this medicine, you have a higher risk of being pregnant with more than one child at the same time (multiple pregnancy, mostly twins), than if you conceived naturally. Multiple pregnancy may lead to medical complications for you and your babies. You can reduce the risk of multiple pregnancy by using the right dose of medicine at the right times. When undergoing assisted reproductive technology, the risk of having a multiple pregnancy is related to your age, the quality and the number of fertilised eggs or embryos placed inside you.
