REPRONEX® is a purified preparation of naturally derived gonadotropins. REPRONEX® contains 75 IU follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and 75 IU luteinizing hormone (LH) in a 1:1 ratio. REPRONEX® stimulates eggs to mature in women whose ovaries are basically healthy but are unable to develop eggs. It is not used for women who suffer from ovarian failure.

REPRONEX® is usually used together with human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), and is indicated for the development of multiple follicles and ovulation induction following pituitary suppression.

REPRONEX® is available by prescription in 5 mL vials containing 75 IU FSH and 75 LH activity with accompanying diluent.

Please note:
Only physicians thoroughly familiar with infertility treatment, including the risk of multiple births and adverse reactions, should prescribe REPRONEX. It is a potent gonadotropic substance capable of causing mild to severe adverse reactions in women. Gonadotropin therapy requires a certain time commitment by physicians and supportive health professionals, and its use requires the availability of appropriate monitoring facilities. In female patients it must be used with a great deal of care. REPRONEX, like all gonadotropins, is a potent substance capable of causing mild to severe adverse reactions, including OHSS (incidence of 3.5%), with or without pulmonary or vascular complications, in women undergoing therapy for infertility.
