What is Choriomon (Chorionic Gonadotrophin) used for?

Choriomon is a fertility treatment for women. It contains the active ingredient Human Chorionic Gonadotrophin or HCG for administration by intravenous injection or subcutaneous injection. Choriomon increases ovulation by suppressing luteinizing hormone response to gonadotrophin-releasing hormone. HCG is also used by some people for weight loss.

How should I use Choriomon (Chorionic Gonadotrophin)?

Choriomon comes in a box containing two vials:

• one containing the active ingredient as a powder form
• one containing the water and preservative required for injection

The dosage of HCG in each pack is 5000IU.

Choriomon is injected into the muscle (intramuscular injection) or under the skin (subcutaneous injection).

Inject Choriomon as follows:

• draw the liquid into the syringe
• inject the liquid into the ampoule containing the powder
• thoroughly mix these together until the powder is completely dissolved
• draw the mixed solution back into the syringe
• make sure any air bubbles are removed prior to injection
• inject the solution into the muscle or under the skin

Once the powder and solution are mixed, the resulting liquid must be refrigerated at all times and used within 40 days.
