Cidolut Depot 250 Mg 1 Ampoules

Cidolut Depot 250 Mg 1 Ampoules

Description:

Cidolut Depot 250 mg is a hormonal prescription medication containing hydroxyprogesterone caproate, a long‑acting synthetic progestin. It is supplied as a sterile intramuscular injection ampoule and is used under medical supervision to support and maintain pregnancy in selected cases, regulate the menstrual cycle, and manage certain gynecological and hormonal disorders. As a progesterone derivative, Cidolut Depot acts on progesterone receptors in the female reproductive system to stabilize the endometrium, reduce uterine contractions, and help prevent endometrial shedding, thereby contributing to the maintenance of pregnancy and proper female sexual function.

Indications:

• Support and maintenance of pregnancy in selected high‑risk cases as determined by a gynecologist (e.g., history of recurrent pregnancy loss related to progesterone deficiency).
• Management of luteal phase insufficiency where progesterone support is required (as assessed by a specialist).
• Regulation of the menstrual cycle in certain progesterone‑responsive menstrual disorders, such as secondary amenorrhea or dysfunctional uterine bleeding, according to physician guidance.
• Adjunctive hormonal therapy in gynecological conditions where a progestational effect is desired to stabilize the endometrium.
• Symptom control in some progesterone‑responsive conditions such as abnormal uterine bleeding due to hormonal imbalance (diagnosed by a doctor).

Active Ingredients / Key Components:

• Hydroxyprogesterone caproate – 250 mg per ampoule (intramuscular injection).
• Other excipients: Information on additional inactive ingredients (solvents, stabilizers, preservatives) is not available in the provided data. Please refer to the official package insert for the full list of excipients.

Dosage & Administration / How to Use:

• Cidolut Depot 250 mg is for intramuscular injection only and must be administered by a healthcare professional.
• The exact dose, frequency, and duration of treatment are determined strictly by the treating physician based on the indication, patient’s condition, gestational age (if pregnant), and response to therapy.
• Typical regimens for hydroxyprogesterone caproate in clinical practice may involve weekly or bi‑weekly injections; however, you must follow your doctor’s specific instructions and not use any generalized schedule.
• Do not self‑inject or adjust the dose on your own. Always attend scheduled clinic visits for administration.
• If a dose is missed, contact your doctor as soon as possible for advice. Do not double the dose to make up for a missed injection.
• Use only clear, particle‑free solution. The healthcare professional should visually inspect the ampoule before administration.

Clinical Benefits:

• Helps support and maintain pregnancy in selected women by providing sustained progestational activity and reducing the risk of endometrial shedding.
• Stabilizes the endometrium and decreases uterine motility, which may help reduce uterine contractions and support implantation and nidation.
• Contributes to proper development and maintenance of female sexual and reproductive functions through activation of nuclear progesterone receptors in the genital tract, breast, central nervous system, and pituitary.
• Modulates immune responses by decreasing certain T‑cell functions and cell‑mediated immunity, which may help reduce immunological rejection of the fetus in indicated cases.
• Provides long‑acting progesterone support with depot formulation, allowing less frequent dosing compared with some oral progesterone preparations.

Warnings & Contraindications:

• Use only under the supervision of a gynecologist or qualified healthcare professional experienced in hormonal therapy and pregnancy management.
• Contraindicated in known or suspected pregnancy loss not related to progesterone deficiency, missed abortion, or ectopic pregnancy unless specifically directed by a specialist.
• Contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to hydroxyprogesterone caproate, other progestins, or any component of the formulation.
• Generally contraindicated in active or history of hormone‑dependent malignancies (e.g., breast or genital cancers), active or recent thromboembolic disorders, severe liver disease, or unexplained vaginal bleeding, unless your doctor decides otherwise.
• Use with caution in patients with a history of thrombosis, cardiovascular disease, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, migraine, asthma, depression, or liver impairment. Close medical monitoring is required.
• Consult your doctor before use if pregnant, nursing, taking other hormonal medications, anticoagulants, or have medical conditions such as liver disease, kidney disease, heart disease, diabetes, or clotting disorders.
• Do not use for weight control, fertility enhancement, or any non‑approved indication.
• Not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease without proper medical evaluation and prescription.
• Keep out of reach of children. Accidental injection or ingestion can be harmful.
• Do not use after the expiry date or if the ampoule is damaged, cracked, or shows signs of contamination.

Side Effects:

• Common side effects may include pain, redness, or swelling at the injection site, mild headache, nausea, breast tenderness, dizziness, or fatigue.
• Hormonal side effects can include mood changes, irritability, changes in libido, mild fluid retention, or weight changes.
• Less common but serious side effects may include signs of thrombosis (leg pain or swelling, chest pain, shortness of breath, sudden vision changes), severe headache, jaundice (yellowing of skin or eyes), severe abdominal pain, or allergic reactions (rash, itching, swelling of face or throat, difficulty breathing).
