About Neogentin 75 Injection

Neogentin 75 Injection belongs to the class of drugs called hormones used in the treatment of female infertility in women whose ovaries do not produce eggs and in women receiving treatments like IVF (in-vitro fertilization). Infertility is unable to become pregnant after trying for a year. Female infertility may be caused due to different factors affecting ovulation (release of an egg from the ovary), fertilization (fusion of sperm and egg) and implantation (fertilized egg attaches to uterus lining).

Neogentin 75 Injection contains Urofollitropin which works similarly to follicle-stimulating hormone (natural sex hormone). Neogentin 75 Injection increases oestrogen production that stimulates the development of the egg and mature follicle in women having ovulation (release of an egg from the ovary) problems and those undergoing IVF treatments.

Take Neogentin 75 Injection as prescribed by your doctor. You are advised to take Neogentin 75 Injection for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you based on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience headache, stomach pain, nausea, vomiting, pelvic pain, hot flushes (sudden feeling of warmth) or inflammation of the throat and nasal passage. Most of these side effects of Neogentin 75 Injection do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.

If you are allergic to Neogentin 75 Injection or any other medicines, please tell your doctor. Avoid taking Neogentin 75 Injection if you are pregnant or breastfeeding and consult a doctor before taking Neogentin 75 Injection. Avoid taking Neogentin 75 Injection if you have tumours of the pituitary gland, hypothalamus, uterus, breasts or ovaries, vaginal bleeding, uterus fibroids, early menopause, malformations of sexual organs, cysts on ovaries or enlarged ovaries. If you experience weight gain, stomach pain, diarrhoea, nausea, vomiting, difficulty in breathing, decreased urination or swelling in the stomach after a few days of taking Neogentin 75 Injection last dose, please consult a doctor immediately as these might be signs of high levels of activity in the ovaries.
