Krimson 35 Tablet

Krimson 35 Tablet is helpful in treating androgen-dependent diseases such as polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), excessive hair growth (hirsutism), acne and irregular periods. It is a combination of cyproterone and Ethinyl estradiol.

The tablet works by preventing the overproduction of androgens in the ovaries of female, due to which unwanted hair growth and acne is reduced. The dose of the medicine should be taken as prescribed by the doctor. It can be taken with or without food but it is important to take it as a fixed time.

Take according to recommended schedule. It is important to maintain the schedule of drug days and drug-free days. Periodic gynecologic exam and breast exams for females are important.

You may experience nausea or vomiting (small frequent meals may help); dizziness or mental depression (use caution when driving); rash; loss of scalp hair; enlargement/tenderness of breasts; or increased/decreased libido.

Report significant swelling in extremities, sudden acute pain in legs or calves, chest, or abdomen; shortness of breath; severe headache or vomiting; weakness or numbness of arms or legs; or unusual vaginal bleeding.
