A supportive solution that can trigger egg release after stimulation is complete

A single dose, prefilled syringe

Ovidrel® PreFilled Syringe is also indicated for the induction of ovulation (OI) and pregnancy in infertile patients who do not ovulate, and in whom the cause of infertility is functional and not due to primary ovarian failure.
