DESCRIPTION:
FOLLTROPIN (porcine pituitary-derived follicle stimulating hormone for
injection) is a powder for
solution containing 700 IU (equivalent to 400 mg NIH-FSH-P1) of
follicle stimulating hormone (FSH)
per vial. FOLLTROPIN contains a low amount of luteinizing hormone
(less than 1000 μg NIH-LH-
S19 per vial). When reconstituted according to label directions the
final solution contains 35 IU FSH
per mL for intramuscular injection. There are no inactive ingredients
in the FSH vial.
INDICATIONS FOR USE:
For the induction of superovulation in beef and dairy heifers and
cows. Not for use in male cattle or
reproductively immature heifers because safety and effectiveness have
not been tested.
DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION:
For intramuscular injection only.
Reconstitute each vial of FOLLTROPIN with 20 mL bacteriostatic sodium
chloride injection, using
strict aseptic technique. Do not use if clumps or particles are
visible after gentle mixing. Once
reconstituted, FOLLTROPIN should be stored refrigerated at 2-8°C
(36-46°F) for no longer than 4
days.
Regimen: Start injections on day 8 to 10 following observed or induced
estrus. Administer 2.5 mL (87.5
IU ) of FOLLTROPIN intramuscularly, twice daily at 12 hour intervals,
for 4 consecutive days. In
conjunction with the 6
dose of FOLLTROPIN , administer an FDA-approved prostaglandin product
(cloprostenol sodium or dinoprost tromethamine) for cattle, using the
labeled dosage and administration
instructions to cause luteolysis and induce estrus.
Inseminate animals at 12 and 24 hours after the onset of estrus or 60
and 72 hours after prostaglandin
treatment. Additional inseminations may be conducted at 12 hour
intervals, if indicated.
