Tablets

[ireland_2014]

Has anyone been on the tablet Duphaston? I've been given this for the next three months because the pill wasn't working. Are there any side effects?

This drug was withdrawn from the UK in 2008.

It is only available in a limited number of countries now

drugs.com/international/dup... lists the countries.

Because most of the forum members are from the UK, where the drug is not available, you might be better posting your question on a forum for one of the countries that still sells it.

australia, new zealand and south africa are the main 3 english speaking countries that have it apart from ireland, so do hunt out the family planning and endo forums for those nations as you are much more likely to get a bigger response to your question.

also for side effects read the patient information leaflet online before you get the prescription.

you can do that for any medicines, all the patient information leaflets are freely available if you just google them.

is the one for duphaston.
