Hydroxyprogesterone Caproate Injection I.P. 250 mg/1 ml

Product Description

CPGEST HD-250 Injection is a hormonal preparation containing Hydroxyprogesterone Caproate I.P. 250 mg per 1 ml. It belongs to the class of progestins and is widely used in gynecology and obstetrics for managing conditions associated with progesterone deficiency. This injection is formulated in an oily base to ensure slow and sustained release of the hormone, providing prolonged therapeutic action.

Composition

• Hydroxyprogesterone Caproate I.P. — 250 mg
• Oily Base — q.s.

Indications

CPGEST HD-250 is primarily prescribed for:

• Prevention of preterm birth: Recommended for pregnant women with a history of early deliveries.
• Recurrent miscarriage management: Helps support pregnancy in women with recurrent pregnancy loss linked to progesterone deficiency.
• Menstrual disorders: Used in conditions such as amenorrhea or irregular menstrual cycles caused by insufficient progesterone.
• Hormonal support: Provides luteal phase support in women undergoing fertility treatments.

Mode of Action

Hydroxyprogesterone Caproate works by mimicking the natural hormone progesterone. It stabilizes the uterine lining, supports early pregnancy, and reduces uterine contractions, thereby lowering the risk of premature labor. Its long-acting nature makes it suitable for once-a-week or bi-weekly dosing, depending on the physician’s prescription.

Dosage & Administration

The injection is administered intramuscularly (IM) under medical supervision. Dosage and frequency depend on the patient’s condition, history, and physician’s discretion. Self-administration is not recommended.
