Follistim Aq Information:
What is Follistim AQ?
Follistim AQ is a manufactured version of the naturally occurring follicle stimulating hormone (FSH). It is prescribed to treat infertility in women who do not have ovarian failure but cannot ovulate. It works by regulating the egg growth and development and stimulating ovulation. Follistim AQ is also prescribed to men in order to increase sperm production. Follistim is not effective in women with primary ovarian failure or men with primary testicular failure.
How do I take Follistim AQ?
Follistim Aq is administered through injection; women may receive the injection either below the skin or into the muscle; men receive only a subcutaneous injection. This medication may be administered either in a physician’s office or at home; if injecting it at home, have your healthcare provider demonstrate the proper procedure. The strength and frequency of dosage will depend on the condition being treated and the patient’s medical profile. Do not inject Follistim Aq if it is cloudy or there are particles in it. Do not take more or less of this drug without your doctor’s permission.
Before taking Follistim AQ, tell your doctor if:
- You are allergic to follicle stimulation hormone, neomycin, streptomycin, or any of the ingredients in Follistim Aq
- You are pregnant, planning a pregnancy, or are nursing a child
- You are taking any prescription or non-prescription medications, vitamins, or supplements
- You have, or have had, unusual vaginal bleeding, an ovarian cyst, polycystic ovary disease, or ovarian cancer
- You have, or have had, testicular cancer
- You have, or have had, heart problems, blood clots, or a stroke
