Occasionally systemic side effects eg, nausea and headache have been reported. In addition, a single case of pruritus have been reported during treatment with cetrorelix.
A sever hypersensitivity reaction associated with cough, rash and hypotension, was observed in one patient after 7 months of treatment of ovarian cancer with cetrorelix (10 mg daily). The patient recovered completely within 20 min. A casual relation could not be excluded.
Occasionally an ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) can occur which is an intrinsic risk of the stimulation procedure (see Precautions).
Symptoms like abdominal pain, tension, nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea and breathing difficulties may indicate an OHSS.
Inform the physician immediately, if such symptoms occur. If any unwanted effect not mentioned in the leaflet is noticed or if unsure about the effect of the medicine, please inform the physician or pharmacist.
