Lentojeston 1 Amp

Lentojeston 1 Amp

Description:

Lentojeston 1 Amp is a prescription hormonal medicine containing hydroxyprogesterone caproate, a long-acting synthetic progestin used by intramuscular injection. It is primarily indicated for gynecological and obstetric conditions where progesterone support is required, such as threatened miscarriage and certain menstrual disorders, under strict medical supervision. Hydroxyprogesterone acts on nuclear progesterone receptors in the female genital tract, breast, central nervous system, and pituitary to support the endometrium, maintain pregnancy, and regulate hormonal balance.

Indications:

• Progesterone support in pregnancy as prescribed by a physician (e.g., threatened miscarriage, history of recurrent pregnancy loss where progesterone therapy is indicated).
• Management of certain menstrual disorders related to progesterone deficiency, as determined by a gynecologist.
• Support of endometrial development and maintenance when progestin therapy is required.
• Conditions where a progestational agent is needed as part of a hormone regimen, strictly according to medical advice.

Active Ingredients / Key Components:

• Hydroxyprogesterone caproate – 250 mg/ml (concentration per ml of solution)
• Dosage per ampoule: exact volume (ml) of the ampoule and total mg content are not specified in the available data.
• Inactive ingredients/excipients: not specified in the available information (For full ingredient information, please check the product leaflet or the manufacturer’s official website.).

Dosage & Administration / How to Use:

• Lentojeston 1 Amp is for intramuscular (i.m.) injection only and must be administered by a qualified healthcare professional.
• Recommended dose, frequency, and duration are individualized by the treating physician based on indication, gestational age (if pregnant), and patient response.
• Do not self-inject or adjust the dose without medical advice.
• Injection is usually given deep intramuscularly, commonly in the gluteal muscle, following standard aseptic technique.
• Use with or without food is not applicable, as this is a parenteral preparation.
• If a dose is missed, contact your doctor for instructions; do not double the next dose without medical guidance.

Clinical Benefits:

• Provides sustained progestational activity to support proper development and maintenance of female reproductive function.
• Helps prepare and maintain the uterine lining (endometrium) for implantation and ongoing pregnancy (nidation and maintenance), when clinically indicated.
• Reduces uterine motility and helps prevent endometrial shedding, which can be beneficial in threatened miscarriage under medical supervision.
• Modulates immune response by decreasing certain T-cell functions and cell-mediated immunity, helping to reduce immunological rejection of the fetus.

Warnings & Contraindications:

• Use only under the supervision of a specialist (gynecologist/obstetrician or endocrinologist) experienced in hormone therapy.
• Contraindicated in known or suspected hormone-dependent malignancies (e.g., breast or genital tract cancer), active or history of thromboembolic disorders, severe liver disease, unexplained vaginal bleeding, or known hypersensitivity to hydroxyprogesterone or any component of the product.
• Use with extreme caution in patients with a history of thrombosis, cardiovascular disease, hypertension, diabetes, migraine, asthma, epilepsy, or depression; regular monitoring may be required.
• Consult your doctor before use if pregnant, nursing, taking other hormonal medications, anticoagulants, or have medical conditions such as liver disease, kidney disease, diabetes, hypertension, or clotting disorders.
• Not intended for use as a general fertility enhancer, contraceptive, or for any indication other than those prescribed by a physician.
• Not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease without explicit medical indication and supervision.
• Keep out of reach of children.
