GRAVION GRANULES 5GM

GRAVION GRANULES 5GM is used to prevent premature labour. Premature labour can start before 37 completed weeks of pregnancy and can be caused by premature rupture of membranes, high blood pressure during pregnancy (pre-eclampsia) and poor diet. A miscarriage is an unexpected loss of pregnancy before 20 weeks of pregnancy. It mostly happens during the first trimester, or the first three months, of the pregnancy. 

GRAVION GRANULES 5GM contains “Allylestrenol”, a progestin (female hormones) that works by modulating the immune response of the pregnant women to prevent rejection of the embryo and allows its attachment to the uterus and improve blood flow to the placenta. GRAVION GRANULES 5GM prevents repeated miscarriage (pregnancy loss) and helps lower the risk of premature birth in pregnant women who have had a past premature delivery.

GRAVION GRANULES 5GM is used in the treatment of Recurrent Miscarriage and premature labour. The detailed uses of GRAVION GRANULES 5GM are as follows:

• Prevention of Miscarriage and Habitual Abortion: GRAVION GRANULES 5GM is primarily used to support pregnancy in women with a history of recurrent miscarriages by mimicking the effects of natural progesterone, which helps maintain the uterine lining and promotes embryo attachment.
• Management of Premature Labor: GRAVION GRANULES 5GM helps prevent early uterine contractions and relaxes the uterus muscles, reducing the risk of preterm birth and supporting full-term pregnancy.
• Support for Intrauterine Growth and Implantation: GRAVION GRANULES 5GM improves blood flow to the placenta and enhances conditions for fetal development by stabilizing hormonal levels and aiding in successful implantation of the embryo.

• GRAVION GRANULES 5GM can be taken with or without food as advised by your doctor.
• Follow your doctor’s instructions on the dosage and timing of this medication.
• Swallow GRAVION GRANULES 5GM as a whole with a glass of water.

GRAVION GRANULES 5GM contains “Allylestrenol” which is a progestin (female hormones) which is used in pregnant women who have a recurrent and threatened miscarriage (abortion) and pregnant women who have delivered a baby too early (preterm) in the past. It works by modulating the immune response of the pregnant women to prevent rejection of the embryo and allow its attachment to the uterus, and improve blood flow to the placenta.  It also relaxes uterus muscles, thereby preventing premature labour. GRAVION GRANULES 5GM prevents repeated miscarriage and helps lower the risk of premature birth in pregnant women who have had a past premature delivery. Also, GRAVION GRANULES 5GM is used to treat intrauterine growth retardation (unborn baby is not growing at a normal rate), amenorrhoea (absence of menstrual periods due to lack of progesterone), irregular menses cycle, and premenstrual syndrome (symptoms include mood swings, tender breasts, food cravings, fatigue, irritability and depression that women can experience in the weeks before their menses period). On the other hand, GRAVION GRANULES 5GM is effective in the treatment of hot flashes in postmenopausal women and benign prostatic hyperplasia (noncancerous increase in the size of the prostate gland) in men.
