Naturogest 400 mg Tablet SR

Naturogest 400 mg Tablet SR is a progesterone medicine in sustained-release tablet form. Each tablet contains 400 mg of progesterone, a hormone used in infertility therapy and other conditions where progesterone support is needed. It is prescribed to help support the uterine lining and maintain hormone balance when a doctor decides progesterone replacement is appropriate. Naturogest 400 mg Tablet SR is a higher-strength option than the 200 mg and 300 mg tablets, so it is usually chosen when a clinician wants a stronger per-tablet dose.

How it works: Progesterone helps prepare and support the lining of the uterus so it can better accept and maintain a pregnancy in infertility treatment. As a sustained-release tablet, Naturogest 400 mg Tablet SR releases progesterone gradually after swallowing, helping maintain hormone levels over time.

Naturogest 400 mg Tablet SR delivers 400 mg of progesterone in one sustained-release tablet, which is higher than Naturogest 200 mg Tablet SR and Naturogest 300 mg Tablet SR. This higher strength may suit patients who need fewer tablets per dose or a doctor-directed stronger progesterone regimen, and the sustained-release design may provide steadier hormone levels over time. Because it is a stronger tablet, it is not meant to be used casually or to replace lower strengths without medical guidance.

• Progesterone support in infertility therapy
• Support of the uterine lining
• Luteal phase support
• Hormone replacement when prescribed
• Other progesterone-deficiency conditions as directed by a doctor

• Swallow Naturogest 400 mg Tablet SR whole with water; do not crush, chew, or split it because it is a sustained-release tablet.
• Take it exactly at the time and frequency your doctor prescribes, since the 400 mg strength is a higher-dose product.
• You may take it with or without food unless your doctor gives different instructions.
• If it makes you sleepy or dizzy, take extra care with driving or activities that need alertness.
• If you miss a dose, take it when you remember unless it is almost time for the next dose; do not double up unless your prescriber tells you to.

Each Naturogest 400 mg Tablet SR provides 400 mg of progesterone per tablet, so it is a relatively strong single dose compared with the 200 mg and 300 mg tablets. The doctor decides how often it should be taken based on the condition being treated, and the total daily amount may vary; many progesterone regimens use more than one tablet per day, but the exact maximum for you must come from your prescriber. Do not change the dose on your own because higher-strength progesterone can increase side effects if used incorrectly.

Do not change your dose or stop the medicine without speaking to your doctor.
