Patient summary

Dydrogesterone 10mg tablets, used in the management of endometriosis, dysmenorrhoea, infertility and secondary amenorrhoea. An orally active progestogen.

Mechanism of action

Dydrogesterone is an orally active progestogen that mimics the effect of endogenous progesterone on the endometrium, enabling the transformation of the endometrium from a proliferative to a secretory phase without inhibiting ovulation.

Pregnancy and breastfeeding

Pregnancy: No evidence of harm in limited studies. Breastfeeding: Avoid unless specified by a consultant.

Duphaston is a tablet containing 10mg of dydrogesterone, an orally active progestogen. It is used in the management of endometriosis, dysmenorrhoea, infertility and secondary amenorrhoea. The originator is Abbott.

Dydrogesterone acts on the endometrium much as endogenous progesterone does, shifting it from a proliferative to a secretory phase without suppressing ovulation. It is not suitable for anyone with vaginal bleeding of unknown cause, severe liver impairment or a known hypersensitivity to dydrogesterone, and a tumour must be excluded before diagnosis. Patients with a history of depression need monitoring. Haemolytic anaemia and liver dysfunction have been reported and require immediate medical attention.

What you will receive

Duphaston is the originator brand name, made by Abbott. We use it here to identify the medicine only; we are not affiliated with Abbott and do not ship the original Duphaston.

  • You receive a generic equivalent: the same active ingredient (Dydrogesterone) at the same dose, mostly recognised Indian branded generics from vetted manufacturers.
  • The exact brand supplied depends on what is in stock at the dispatching warehouse.
  • Inactive ingredients, tablet appearance and packaging can differ from the original brand; the active ingredient and dose are the same.
