Melsmon vs Laennec and other placenta injections — what is the difference?

They share a source but they are not the same medicine. Each maker uses its own process, so the amount and type of active differ. Do not swap one for another without checking the insert.

What is Melsmon used for?

The manufacturer's insert lists Melsmon for menopausal symptoms and for insufficient lactation, given by subcutaneous injection. We do not make skin or anti-ageing claims for it. Whether it suits a patient is a decision for the prescribing clinician.

How is Melsmon dosed?

Dosing follows the product insert and the prescribing clinician. We do not publish dose, frequency or course length for prescription-type injectables, and nothing on this page replaces the insert in the box.

How should Melsmon be stored?

Store Melsmon at room temperature, away from light. The insert gives a shelf life of 3 years from manufacture — check the date printed on the box. Keep ampoules sealed in the carton until use.

What should clinics know before using Melsmon?

This is a medicine made from human placenta. Donor screening and heat treatment lower the risk of passing on infection, but they cannot remove it completely. Explain this to the patient and obtain consent before treatment. Record the batch number in the patient file. In some countries people who have received a human placenta injection may no longer donate blood, so raise this at the consultation. Do not use it in patients who have reacted to it before.
