Fertomid 25 mg is a medication produced by Cipla Pharmaceuticals that is primarily used to treat infertility in women. The active ingredient in Fertomid 25 mg is clomiphene citrate, which belongs to a class of drugs called selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERMs). Clomiphene citrate works by stimulating the release of hormones that trigger ovulation, which increases the chances of pregnancy in women who have difficulty conceiving.
Fertomid 25 mg is primarily used to treat infertility in women who have difficulty ovulating. It can also be used to stimulate ovulation in women who have unexplained infertility, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), or other hormonal imbalances. In some cases, Fertomid 25 mg may be used off-label to treat male infertility.
The typical course of treatment with Fertomid 25 mg involves taking one tablet by mouth once a day for five days, starting on the fifth day of the menstrual cycle. If ovulation does not occur after the first course of treatment, the dose may be increased to 50 mg per day for five days in the next cycle. Most women will ovulate within five to ten days after completing the course of Fertomid 25 mg.
Fertomid 25 mg is available for purchase at most pharmacies and online drugstores. The price of Fertomid 25 mg varies depending on the location and the source of the medication. In general, Fertomid 25 mg is relatively inexpensive compared to other fertility treatments.
Like all medications, Fertomid 25 mg can cause side effects. The most common side effects of Fertomid 25 mg include hot flashes, nausea, vomiting, headaches, and breast tenderness. In rare cases, Fertomid 25 mg may cause more serious side effects such as visual disturbances, ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS), and ectopic pregnancy. Women who experience any unusual symptoms while taking Fertomid 25 mg should contact their healthcare provider immediately.
