Additionally, individuals with certain medical conditions, such as liver disease or uncontrolled thyroid disorders, should discuss the use of Clomid with their healthcare provider before starting treatment.

What does Clomifene Citrate interact with?

Clomid may interact with other medications, including certain hormones and fertility drugs.
