Evidence in perspective

The named U.S. product label is the appropriate source for its approved use, contraindications and handling. MENOPUR: the FSH component had an elimination half-life of 11–13 hours during the multiple-dose phase after SC or IM administration in pituitary-suppressed healthy premenopausal women. This does not assign a common half-life to every component, population or formulation; the labeled administration route is SC. A label extraction is not an independent appraisal of every supporting trial or approval of other products with the same ingredient.
