The drug most often used to shut down a woman’s ovaries (before stimulating them with other drugs to produce multiple follicles) is Lupron™ (leuprolide acetate), which has caused a range of problems reported to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), including rash, vasodilation (dilation of blood vessels causing a “hot flash”), paresthesia (sensation of burning), tingling, pruritis (itching), headache and migraine, dizziness, urticaria (hives), alopecia (hair loss), arthralgia (severe joint pain, not inflammatory in character), dyspnea (difficulty breathing), chest pain, nausea, depression, emotional instability, loss of libido (sex drive), amblyopia (dimness of vision), syncope (fainting), asthenia (weakness), asthenia gravis hypophyseogenea (severe weakness due to loss of pituitary function), amnesia (disturbance in memory), hypertension (high arterial blood pressure), tachycardia (rapid beating of the heart), muscular pain, bone pain, nausea/vomiting, asthma, abdominal pain, insomnia, swelling of hands, general edema, chronic enlargement of the thyroid, liver function abnormality, vision abnormality, anxiety, myasthenia (muscle weakness), and vertigo. Although approved for several specific uses,1 Lupron is NOT approved for use in procedures for multiple egg extraction ? something not well understood by many women. (It is legal to use a drug for a non-approved use, as long as it is on the market for at least one approved use, and Lupron is just one of many drugs used “off-label” in this fashion. But proper studies justifying this use for egg extraction have never been formally submitted to the FDA). 그러니까 굉장히 다양한 종류의 부작용이 보고 되었는데 아직까지 어떤 확률로 그런 부작용이 나타나는지, 장기적인 예후는 어떤지 정확히 연구되지는 않았답니다. One of the more serious issues needing far greater attention is the absence of any good quality long term safety data on the infertility drugs commonly used. There are hundreds if not thousands of anecdotal reports, where complications were NOT short-lived. As noted in a three-part series in the Boston Herald: 적어도 수백건의 '장기적' 부작용 사례가 보고 되었다고 나오는군요. 아무튼 위 글 말고도 여러 자료를 찾을 수 있는데, 대개의 결론은 아직 그 위험성에 대해 충분히 연구되지 않았고 불임클리닉에서의 시술과 비교하면 그 편익이 명확치 않으므로 충분히 그 위험성이 연구될 때 까지 배아줄기세포 연구에 사용하지 않는게 좋겠다는 식이 많습니다. 돈 150만원? 받는 것과 간절히 원하던 아이를 얻는 것과는 비교하기 힘들겠죠. 제 생각에도 헌혈 등과는 비교할 수 없을 정도로 부작용과 위험이 큰 것 같군요. |
