How it works
In females undergoing treatment for infertility, sometimes premature ovulation can lead to the release of eggs which are not ready for fertilisation. Cetrofirst 0.25mg Injection blocks the action of a natural hormone and prevents premature release of the eggs from the ovary.
Quick Tips
Cetrofirst 0.25mg Injection helps prevent premature ovulation in women undergoing assisted reproduction treatments such as IVF. It is given as an injection under the skin (subcutaneously) preferably of the upper leg. Inform your doctor immediately if you get very dizzy, faint, vomit, or have diarrhea while using this medicine. These could be symptoms of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS). Do not use this medicine if you are already pregnant or breastfeeding.
