Treatment of infections caused by, or suspected of being caused by, susceptible penicillinase-resistant staphylococci.

Should not be used for initial treatment of severe, life-threatening infections, including endocarditis, but may be used as follow-up after a parenteral penicillinase-resistant penicillin (nafcillin, oxacillin).

If used empirically, consider whether staphylococci resistant to penicillinase-resistant penicillins (oxacillin-resistant [methicillin-resistant] staphylococci) are prevalent in the hospital or community. (See Staphylococci Resistant to Penicillinase-resistant Penicillins under Cautions.)

Ovidrel is a hormone that supports the normal development of an egg in a woman's ovary, and stimulates the release of the egg during ovulation.

HCG is used to cause ovulation and to treat infertility in women, and to increase sperm count in men. HCG is also used in young boys when their testicles have not dropped down into the scrotum normally. This can be caused by a pituitary gland disorder.

HCG may also be used for other purposes not listed in this medication guide.
