Uses

OvaCyst™ is indicated for the treatment of ovarian follicular cysts in dairy cattle. Ovarian cysts are non-ovulated follicles with incomplete luteinization which result in nymphomania or irregular estrus.

Historically, cystic ovaries have responded to an exogenous source of luteinizing hormone (LH) such as human chorionic gonadotropin. OvaCyst™ initiates release of endogenous LH to cause ovulation and luteinization.

The recommended intravenous or intramuscular dosage of OvaCyst™ is 100 mcg (2 mL) per cow.

Each mL of OvaCyst™ contains:

Gonadorelin diacetate tetrahydrate…………………………..50 mcg
Benzyl Alcohol……………………………………………….9 mg
Sodium Chloride……………………………………………...7.48 mg
Water for Injection, U.S.P…………………………………….q.s.
pH adjusted with potassium phosphate (monobasic and dibasic).

Other Information

OvaCyst™ is a sterile solution containing 50 micrograms of gonadorelin (GnRH) diacetate tetrahydrate per milliliter suitable for intramuscular or intravenous administration. Gonadorelin is a decapeptide composed of the sequence of amino acids–

5-oxoPro-His-Trp-Ser-Tyr-Gly-Leu-Arg-Pro-Gly-NH2–

a molecular weight of 1182.32 and empirical formula C55H75N17O13. The diacetate tetrahydrate ester has a molecular weight of 1374.48 and empirical formula C59H91N17O21.

Gonadorelin is the hypothalamic releasing factor responsible for the release of gonadotropins (e.g., LH, FSH) from the anterior pituitary. Synthetic gonadorelin is physiologically and chemically identical to the endogenous bovine hypothalamic releasing factor.
