What Is The Dosage Amount For Pregnyl?

default
Posted on Sat, 16 Aug 2014
Question: My doctor didn't give me the dosage amount for Pregnyl I need to take tomorrow night. Will it hurt if I take the full 10,000 IU? I saw on the back of their sheet that 10,000 is the most common dosage, and I have no refills. And when I call the answering service they get testy with me that this is not an emergency. Well, it kind of is because I spent a lot of time and money! And they should have told me the correct dosage! Anyway, any help you can provide would be awesome!
