Danaxy 200mg Capsule

Danaxy 200mg Capsule contains Danazol 200mg, a synthetic androgen-related hormone. Made by Shrooq, it is prescribed for endometriosis and benign breast disorders. Pack size: 30 capsules.

Uses of Danaxy 200mg Capsule

Danaxy 200mg Capsule is used to treat endometriosis, helping to reduce pelvic pain and shrink endometrial tissue outside the womb. It is also used for some benign breast conditions, such as severe breast pain and lumpiness that have not responded to other measures, and occasionally for hereditary angioedema. It is now used less often because of its side effects.

How Danaxy 200mg Capsule works

Danazol suppresses the release of hormones from the pituitary gland that control the ovaries. This lowers oestrogen levels and stops ovulation, so endometrial tissue and breast tissue are less stimulated. It also has weak male hormone-like effects, which explain several side effects.

Possible side effects

Danaxy 200mg Capsule commonly causes hormone-related side effects, which can include:

• Weight gain and fluid retention
• Acne or oily skin
• Increased facial or body hair
• Hot flushes
• Changes to periods
• Deepening or hoarseness of the voice

Stop taking it and seek urgent help if you have leg pain or swelling, chest pain or sudden breathlessness, yellowing of the skin or eyes, or a severe headache with vision problems.

Precautions and warnings

• You must not take Danaxy 200mg Capsule if you are pregnant, as it can harm the baby; use a non-hormonal method of contraception during treatment.
• Voice changes may be permanent, so tell your doctor promptly if your voice becomes hoarse or deeper.
• Tell your doctor if you have had blood clots, or have liver, kidney or heart disease, epilepsy, migraine or diabetes.
• It interacts with several medicines, including warfarin, carbamazepine, ciclosporin and some statins.
• Do not take it while breastfeeding.
