What Are The Side Effects Of The Drug Duphaston?
Hi Doctor, i went to see a gynacologist because i suffer from menstrual pain. And i made some blood test, as well as vagina. And the doctor gave me duphaston to take from day 1 of my menstrual period till the end. 1-14 days, 15-24 then 25-28. Does it have any disadvantages? Thank you

Hi,
Like most of the drugs, Duphaston also has some manageable side effects when taken over a long period.
But you have been given a short course spread over 3 months. In such a case, it is not likely to cause you side effects. It will correct the hormonal deficit that creates menstrual problems.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
