Ovidrel Description
Ovidrel (also know as Ovitrelle) is an injection. IVFPharmacy has the best Ovidrel price, with the medication sometimes a third of the cost charged in the US.
Ovidrel is often prescribed as part of a fertility drug program and together with an FSH medication. Choriogonadotropin alfa (Ovitrelle / Ovidrel) is a gonadotropin medication, similar to human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG – a hormone produced by the placenta of pregnant women). It causes the ovaries to release an egg and so is often referred to as a “trigger shot”. As a result, Ovidrel can be used to replace Pregnyl / Novarel / hCG when these are not available.
Ovidrel can also be used in men for various hormonal and testicular disorders, including increasing testosterone and sperm production.
Ovidrel - What's Included
Ovidrel comes in a pre-filled syringe ready for injection.
The Difference Between US and European Ovidrel
Ovidrel on IVFPharmacy is made by Serono Pharmaceuticals. It is a brand medication, not generic. The drug composition is exactly the same as in the US but Ovidrel cost is substantially cheaper in Europe. Our Ovidrel price is up to 60% cheaper than the same brand medication in the US.
Ovidrel is sometimes sold under the brand “Ovitrelle” even though it is the same drug manufactured by the same company.
Storage Conditions: Ovidrel (Ovitrelle) shelf life is shortened to 30 days when removed from refrigeration for international shipping.
You may prefer to purchase this medication locally given the short window for use.
