Follistim pen dosage
Posted: 03-03-08 22:54pm

I was told that the cartridges were over loaded by about 130 units. So my 600 unit cartridge should have about 730 units, right?

Anyway, I am self-pay so I wanted to use every drop. The nurse told me to just keep dialing my doses into the pen until it stopped. Once the medicine was gone, it wouldn't finish going down. Then you write down the number in the window and use that number as your remaining dose once you load your new cartridge.

I've been keeping records too, and according to my diary I have already used 775units from a cartridge marked 600, and there is still visible fluid in the cartridge. Confused

Do you think I have done something wrong? Has anybody else had a cartridge overloaded this much? scared

Please help.
