DescriptionMenotropins contains follicle stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone purified from the urine of postmenopausal women. It is used as a fertility medication that is injected either subcutaneously or intramuscularly. It is composed of LH with 2 subunit alpha = 92 residues, beta = 121 residues and FSH with 2 subunits, alpha = 92 residues, beta=111 residues.
Indication/DiseaseFor the treatment of female infertility
PharmacodynamicsMenotropins is used to treat female infertility, stimulates late follicular maturation and resumption of oocyte meiosis, and initiates rupture of the pre-ovulatory ovarian follicle. Menotropins bind to the LH/hCG/FSH receptor of the granulosa and theca cells of the ovary to effect these changes in the absence of an endogenous LH surge.
Mechanism of ActionMenotropins is a combination drug which binds to the Follicle stimulating hormone receptor (which results in ovulation in the absence of sufficient endogenous Luteinizing hormone)and it also binds to the LH receptor, thereby stimulating proper hormone release. The drug contains both FSH and LH,therefore, it induces ovarian follicular growth and development as well as gonadal steroid production in women who do not have ovarian failure.FSH is the primary driver of follicular recruitment and growth in early folliculogenesis, while LH is important for ovarian steroidogenesis and is involved in the physiological events leading to development of a competent pre-ovulatory follicle.

FormulationEach vial of MENOPUR contains 75 International Units of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) activity and 75 International Units of luteinizing hormone (LH) activity, plus 21 mg lactose monohydrate and 0.005 mg Polysorbate 20 and Sodium Phosphate Buffer (So
Physical Appearance Sterile, lyophilized powder which is reconstitution with Sterile 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection.
Route of AdministrationSubcutaneous Injection
Recommended DosageThe dosing scheme for patients undergoing IVF follows a stepwise approach and is individualized for each woman. The recommended initial dose of MENOPUR for women who have received a GnRH agonist for pituitary suppression is 225 International Units. MENOPU
ContraindicationHypersensitivity, high level of FSH indicating primary ovarian failure, cause fetal harm when administerd to prergnant woman, ex hormone dependent tumors of the reproductive tract and accessory organs.
Side EffectsLess than 2% of female patients treated with menotropins develop ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS), especially after the first cycle of therapy. Symptoms of OHSS include swelling of the hands or legs, abdominal pain and swelling, shortness of breathing.

Menotropins bind to the LH/hCG/FSH receptor of the granulosa and theca cells of the ovary to effect these changes in the absence of an endogenous LH surge.
Mechanism of ActionMenotropins is a combination drug which binds to the Follicle stimulating hormone receptor (which results in ovulation in the absence of sufficient endogenous Luteinizing hormone)and it also binds to the LH receptor, thereby stimulating proper hormone release. The drug contains both FSH and LH,therefore, it induces ovarian follicular growth and development as well as gonadal steroid production in women who do not have ovarian failure.FSH is the primary driver of follicular recruitment and growth in early folliculogenesis, while LH is important for ovarian steroidogenesis and is involved in the physiological events leading to development of a competent pre-ovulatory follicle.
