BUSELIN INJECTION 7ML

BUSELIN INJECTION 7ML belongs to a group of medicines called gonadotropin-releasing hormone analogues indicated in women for the treatment of infertility and endometriosis. This medicine is also indicated in the treatment of prostate cancer (cancer of the prostate gland) in men who have not had testicles removed by surgery.

BUSELIN INJECTION 7ML contains Buserelin, a synthetic version of the hormone that naturally occurs in the body. It works by stopping the production of natural hormones that control ovulation. It helps relieve symptoms of endometriosis by reducing the production of female sex hormones by acting on the pituitary gland. This medicine helps treat prostate cancer by reducing the production of testosterone and helps to stop the growth of cancer cells.

In some cases, BUSELIN INJECTION 7ML may cause side effects like diarrhoea, constipation, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and headache. Most of these side effects may not require medical attention and resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to the doctor if the side effects persist or worsen.

Avoid using BUSELIN INJECTION 7ML if you are pregnant, think you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have abnormal menstrual bleeding. Consult your doctor immediately if you become pregnant while on treatment with BUSELIN INJECTION 7ML. Do not father a child during treatment with BUSELIN INJECTION 7ML and for a few months afterwards, as it might harm the developing baby in the womb. Inform your doctor about your health condition and medications to rule out any side effects/interactions.

BUSELIN INJECTION 7ML belongs to a group of medicines called gonadotropin-releasing hormone analogues indicated in the treatment of infertility and endometriosis in women. It is also indicated in the treatment of prostate cancer in men who have not had testicles removed by surgery. BUSELIN INJECTION 7ML contains Buserelin, a synthetic version of the hormone that naturally occurs in the body. It acts on the pituitary gland in the brain to stop the production of natural hormones that control the release of eggs from the ovaries. Other hormonal treatments are then used to stimulate ovulation artificially. Female hormones such as oestrogen may worsen problems like endometriosis. It helps relieve symptoms of endometriosis by reducing the production of female sex hormones by acting on the pituitary gland. In men, it prevents the pituitary gland from releasing luteinising hormone. This prevents the testicles from producing testosterone, which is required by the prostate gland to grow. By reducing testosterone, it shrinks and prevents the growth of prostate cancer.

Endometriosis usually occurs when the endometrial tissue grows on the ovaries, pelvis lining, and fallopian tubes. Symptoms include pelvic pain, painful periods, pain in the abdomen during and before menstruation, heavy menstrual bleeding, discomfort during bowel movements, lower back pain during menstruation, pain during sexual intercourse, and cramps 1-2 weeks around menstruation.

Infertility: It is a condition in which a woman cannot become pregnant even after having carefully timed, unprotected sex for a year. Age, hormonal problems, physical problems, lifestyle or environmental factors could be the causes of infertility.

Prostate cancer: Prostate cancer, also called prostatic carcinoma, is cancer in the prostate gland (a gland that produces seminal fluid). Symptoms include difficulty with urination, weak or interrupted flow of urine, trouble emptying the bladder completely, and pain or burning sensation during urination.
