Terápiás javallatok:

Clomiphene citrate is indicated for the treatment of ovulatory dysfunction in women desiring pregnancy. Impediments to achieving pregnancy must be excluded or adequately treated before beginning clomiphene citrate therapy. Those patients most likely to achieve success with clomiphene therapy include patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (see WARNINGS : Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome ), amenorrhea-galactorrhea syndrome, psychogenic amenorrhea, post-oral-contraceptive amenorrhea, and certain cases of secondary amenorrhea of undetermined etiology. Properly timed coitus in relationship to ovulation is important. A basal body temperature graph or other appropriate tests may help the patient and her physician determine if ovulation occurred. Once ovulation has been established, each course of clomiphene citrate should be started on or about the 5th day of the cycle. Long-term cyclic therapy is not recommended beyond a total of about six cycles (including three ovulatory cycles). (See DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION

CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
ACTION
Clomiphene citrate is a drug of considerable pharmacologic potency.
With careful selection and proper
management of the patient, clomiphene citrate has been demonstrated to
be a useful therapy for the
anovulatory patient desiring pregnancy.
Clomiphene citrate is capable of interacting with
estrogen-receptor-containing tissues, including the
hypothalamus, pituitary, ovary, endometrium, vagina, and cervix. It
may compete with estrogen for
estrogen-receptor-binding sites and may delay replenishment of
intracellular estrogen receptors.
Clomiphene citrate initiates a series of endocrine events culminating
in a preovulatory gonadotropin
surge and subsequent follicular rupture. The first endocrine event in
response to a course of
clomiphene therapy is an increase in the release of pituitary
gonadotropins. This initiates
steroidogenesis and folliculogenesis, resulting in growth of the
ovarian follicle and an increase in the
circulating level of estradiol. Following ovulation, plasma
progesterone and estradiol
