Hi dear forumers,

Seeking for an answer. My wife is currently 18 weeks pregnant. 2 weeks ago, she have bleeding and were diagnose with threatened miscarriage.

The doctor gave my wife prescribe of Duphaston (Dydrogesterone 10mg) for 2 weeks period.

Is it safe for me to buy the medicine from pharmacy and continue with the prescribe?

Anyone using this medicine before?

if doctor only gave 2 weeks med, didn't he made appointment to follow up on her condition (when the 2 weeks is up or within the 2 weeks)?

You mean the drug given cannot last for 2 weeks or your wife overdosed it?

The med that doc gave only last for 2 weeks. However i have search in google and found out the med is actually good for those who previously have case like miscarriage or ectopic pregnancy.

During my wife first pregnancy she were diagnose with ectopic pregnancy and need to undergone operation to remove the fallopian tiub.

Just wondering if there's any side effect if my wife continue to take the med.

If the doctor's prescription is for 2 weeks, just follow, no need to be clever on this.
Taking more drugs during pregnancy are good to get a mutated baby.
I'll go to government hospital and get 2nd opinion.

Given the severity of the issue, I would strongly suggest you to give a call to the clinic to confirm.

According to my doctor the side effects only gets nausea and cramping. My wife has been taken for a month anD doc advice us to continue taking. DUphaston is just a medicine to prevent miscarriages. But anyhow give a call to yr doctor get confirmation is the safest.

Don't worry. I had been taking since week5. I'm now nearing week13. I was given 10mg Duphaston since i had miscarried before. Only side effect is constipation. So far so good. Don't worry.

You guys take it within 8 hours apart or just during breakfast, lunch and dinner?
