About QC 50 Capsule

QC 50 Capsule is an ovulation stimulant medication used to treat infertility in women who are not ovulating (producing an egg) properly or have an irregular or no menstrual cycle. Ovulation issues are a common cause of female infertility.

QC 50 Capsule is a combination of Clomifene Citrate (oestrogen agonist) and Ubidecarenone (nutritional supplements). Clomifene Citrate boosts the production of hormones involved in the ovulation process. Ubidecarenone is an antioxidant that protects the body from harm caused by chemicals (free radicals) that cause infertility. As a result, QC 50 Capsule effectively addresses female infertility.

You should take this medicine as prescribed by your doctor. The common side-effects of QC 50 Capsule are flushing (reddening of the skin, especially the face), headache, Insomnia, tiredness, dizziness, breast pain or tenderness, heavy periods, or bleeding between periods. Tell your doctor if any of these side effects persist or worsen.

Do not take QC 50 Capsule if you are allergic to Clomifene Citrate or Ubidecarenone or any other ingredients present in it, have liver disease, unexplained and unusual menstrual bleeding, have a type of cancer worse by hormones, or have an ovarian cyst.
