Quick tips

  • Your doctor may prescribe more than one medicine as part of a pregnancy plan.
  • The injection is administered under the skin. Follow the recommended dosage and monitoring schedules to minimise the possibility of ovarian hyperstimulation.
  • Inform your doctor immediately if you have severe pelvic pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, sudden weight gain, trouble breathing, or decreased or no urination during treatment, as these could be symptoms of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS).
  • Do not use Fostine 150 Injection if you are already pregnant or breastfeeding.
  • Pregnancy following treatment with Fostine 150 Injection is more likely to result in a multiple pregnancy (twins or more) than if you had conceived naturally.
  • Fostine 150 Injection stimulates the production of eggs in women having treatment for anovulatory infertility.
