Menopur (Gonadotropins-human) is best injected under the skin of the lower abdomen a few inches below your navel. Each day, use the alternate side of your lower abdomen (e.g., left or right) to prevent soreness.
Your doctor or another health care professional will show you exactly how to mix and draw up the medication into the needles and how to inject it. Once the dose of medication has been prepared, it should be used immediately. Discard any unused material after use. Do not use your injectable solution if it appears cloudy, lumpy, or discoloured.
It is important that you follow the dosing schedule closely and keep all doctor's appointments. Your doctor will monitor how the ovaries are responding to the medication and frequent appointments will be necessary.
It is important to use Menopur (Gonadotropins-human) exactly as prescribed by your doctor. If you miss a dose, use it as soon as possible and continue with your regular schedule.
