How to take the medicine

Medicines must always be taken as directed by the doctor. Stimulation is performed in the evening. Choose the time yourself - we recommend a time between 6 pm and 7 pm. Stimulation must be performed at the same time every day. When traveling, make sure you account for any change in time. Application most often begins on the 6th day of stimulation (individual for every client) and continues until the end of stimulation. 

Always wash your hands before applying the medicine. 

The syringe is pre-filled. DO NOT remove the bubble from the syringe, simply tap gently until it moves to the tip of the syringe. The medicine is ready for application. 

For the injection, choose an area around the navel in the lower abdomen and change the site of application every day. Use a disinfectant pad at the chosen area. The drug should be administered subcutaneously. Therefore the injection should be performed at an angle of 90° while holding the subcutaneous tissue. Insert the whole needle into the subcutaneous tissue and apply the medicine by squeezing the side of the syringe. Dispose of the used syringe with needle in a container and use a new needle every day.
