Frequently asked questions

What is Kelzyn used for?+
Kelzyn is a combined oral contraceptive containing dienogest and ethinylestradiol. It is prescribed to prevent pregnancy in women of reproductive age by inhibiting ovulation and modifying cervical mucus. It may also be used to regulate menstrual cycles and reduce menstrual pain under medical guidance.
How does dienogest work?+
Dienogest is a synthetic progestogen that binds to progesterone receptors in the hypothalamus and pituitary, suppressing the luteinizing hormone surge that triggers ovulation. It also thickens cervical mucus and induces endometrial changes, contributing to contraceptive efficacy when combined with ethinylestradiol.
What is the usual dose of Kelzyn?+
The dosage of Kelzyn is determined by the prescribing healthcare professional. Typically, it is taken as one tablet daily at the same time each day, but the exact regimen, including any missed‑dose instructions, must follow the prescriber’s order.
Is Kelzyn safe to use during pregnancy or breastfeeding?+
Kelzyn is intended for use only when pregnancy is not desired; it should not be started during an existing pregnancy. Women who are breastfeeding should consult their physician, as hormonal contraceptives may affect milk production and infant exposure.
How do I order Kelzyn from GNH USA?+
To order Kelzyn, submit an enquiry on the product page at gnh-usa.com, specifying the required quantity. GNH USA works with hospitals, pharmacies and procurement teams worldwide, verifies trade or institutional credentials, and then provides pricing, availability, shipping details and any necessary import documentation.
How does Kelzyn compare with other combined oral contraceptives?+
Kelzyn contains dienogest, a progestogen with a lower androgenic profile, combined with ethinylestradiol, which may result in fewer acne‑related side effects compared with some older formulations that use levonorgestrel. Efficacy in preventing pregnancy is comparable across approved combined pills.
How should Kelzyn be stored?+
Kelzyn tablets should be stored at ambient temperature, below 25 °C, in the original blister pack or container. Keep them away from moisture, heat and direct sunlight to maintain potency throughout the shelf life.
How is Kelzyn administered?+
Kelzyn is taken orally, usually one tablet each day, preferably at the same time each day. Swallow the tablet whole with water; do not split, crush or chew unless instructed by a healthcare professional.
What are the most serious risks associated with Kelzyn?+
The most serious risks include venous thromboembolism, pulmonary embolism, stroke, myocardial infarction and severe allergic reactions. These events are rare but require immediate medical attention if symptoms such as sudden chest pain, shortness of breath, severe headache or rash occur.
Who should not use Kelzyn?+
Kelzyn is contraindicated in women who are pregnant, have a history of thromboembolic disorders, uncontrolled hypertension, active liver disease, breast cancer, or who smoke cigarettes and are over 35 years of age. Consultation with a healthcare provider is essential before starting therapy.
