Description
Key Features
Active Ingredient: The main active ingredient is estradiol cypionate, which is a long-acting form of estrogen.
Dosage and Formulation: It is an intramuscular injection with a concentration of 5 mg/mL in a 5 mL vial. The formulation is an oily preparation, which allows it to be absorbed slowly and last for several weeks.
Mechanism of Action: The drug works as a pro-drug for estradiol, the primary female sex hormone. It binds to estrogen receptors in various tissues and organs to produce its therapeutic effects.
Uses
DEPO-Estradiol is primarily used for hormone replacement therapy in women. Its main applications include:
Vasomotor Symptoms: Treating moderate to severe symptoms associated with menopause, such as hot flashes and night sweats.
Hypoestrogenism: Addressing conditions where the body doesn't produce enough estrogen, such as due to hypogonadism or primary ovarian failure.
