HCG 2500 IU: Each vial contains 2500 IU Highly Purified (HP) Human Chorionic
Gonadotrophin BP.
Pharmacological Action
Pharmacodynamic Properties
HCG contains Highly Purified Human Chorionic Gonadotrophin which has LH activity. LH
is indispensable in normal female and male gamete growth and maturation, and gonadal
steroid production.
In the female:
HCG is given as a substitute for the endogenous mid-cycle LH surge to induce the final
phase of follicular maturation, leading to ovulation. HCG is also given as a substitute for
endogenous LH during the luteal phase.
In the male:
HCG is given to stimulate Leydig cells to promote the production of testosterone.
Pharmacokinetic Properties
Maximal HCG plasma levels will be reached approximately six hours after a single
injection of HCG. HCG is for approximately 80 percent metabolized, predominantly in the
kidneys. Following intramuscular injection (IM) the apparent elimination half-life of HCG is
about 2 days. On basis of the recommended dose regimens and elimination half-life,
accumulation does not occur.
Indications
In the female:
Ovulation induction in infertility due to anovulation or impaired follicle-ripening.
Preparation of follicles for puncture in controlled ovarian hyperstimulation programs (ART).
Luteal phase support.
Threatened and habitual abortion.
In the male:
Hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (also cases of idiopathic dysspermias have shown a
positive response to gonadotropins).
Used to treat oligospermia.
Delayed puberty associated with insucient gonadotropic pituitary function.
