Patient summary

developed to support fertility in women and indicated to target the endocrine system for improved ovulatory function.

Mechanism of action

Clomiphene acts as a selective oestrogen receptor modulator. It binds to oestrogen receptors in the hypothalamus, blocking negative feedback and stimulating the release of gonadotropins to induce ovulation.

What you will receive

Serophene is the originator brand name, made by Sanofi. We use it here to identify the medicine only; we are not affiliated with Sanofi and do not ship the original Serophene.

  • You receive a generic equivalent: the same active ingredient (Clomifene) at the same dose, mostly recognised Indian branded generics from vetted manufacturers.
  • The exact brand supplied depends on what is in stock at the dispatching warehouse.
  • A regulated generic matches the original ingredient for ingredient by legal standard.

About Serophene

Serophene is a brand of clomifene, a widely used treatment for female infertility, specifically anovulation and anovulatory infertility. The same active ingredient is also sold as Clomid, supplied as a tablet in strengths of 25, 50, and 100mg. This medication remains a standard approach for addressing these specific fertility concerns.

Serophene availability in Asia

Serophene is registered across 14 markets including the UAE, Singapore, and Hong Kong, with availability also in Thailand, Malaysia, and the Philippines. While access to such medications can vary for expats living far from a major medical hub, the generic clomifene, often produced in India, frequently presents an accessible and affordable alternative to the original Sanofi brand. This treatment should only be used under the supervision and guidance of a medical professional.
