Introduction About DANZOX 200MG CAPSULE
DANZOX
200MG CAPSULE contains Danazol which belongs to the group of medicines
called Androgens. It is used to manage endometriosis, severe cyclical
mastalgia (breast pain associated with hormonal variations), breast
cysts, dysfunctional uterine bleeding (bleeding from vagina other than
that of menstrual cycle), symptomatic gynecomastia, preoperative
thinning of endometrium and hereditary angioneurotic edema (painless
swelling under the skin).
Endometriosis is defined as an illness
where some of the tissues that line the womb are found elsewhere in the
body. Gynecomastia refers to an increase in the amount of breast gland
tissue in males, due to an imbalance of hormones estrogen and
testosterone.
Prior to the management, your doctor may want you to take several blood tests to understand your existing condition.
Avoid consumption of alcohol during management with DANZOX 200MG CAPSULE, as it may cause nausea or breathlessness.
