A small arrow pointing down

This medication is inserted into the vagina, where it dissolves to release the active ingredients for local absorption.

It is important to note that this formulation is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to estradiol or estriol. Additionally, estrogen therapy should not be used in women with a range of conditions including active thrombophlebitis or thromboembolic disorders, a history of endometrial cancer or endometrial hyperplasia, active or past history of breast cancer, active liver disease, known or suspected pregnancy, undiagnosed abnormal genital bleeding, known or suspected estrogen-dependent neoplasia, active deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, or history of these conditions, known or suspected hypercalcemia, and known or suspected hypersensitivity to any of the ingredients in the formulation.

Estrogen therapy may increase the risk of several health conditions including endometrial hyperplasia, endometrial cancer, breast cancer, thromboembolic disorders, stroke, coronary artery disease, hypercalcemia, liver disease, gallbladder disease, hypertension, hypertriglyceridemia, hypercholesterolemia, dementia, cataracts, endometriosis, ovarian cancer, uterine fibroids, deep vein thrombosis, and pulmonary embolism. Therefore, patients should be closely monitored for signs and symptoms of these conditions while undergoing treatment.

If you have any questions about the use of Estradiol 9 Mcg/Estriol 0.5 mg Vaginal Suppository for the treatment of atrophic vaginitis, menopausal symptoms, dyspareunia, vulvovaginal atrophy, and genitourinary syndrome of menopause, please do not hesitate to reach out for further information.

How Does it Work

A small arrow pointing down

Estradiol 9 Mcg/Estriol 0.5 mg Vaginal Suppository is a specially compounded medication primarily used to alleviate a range of conditions associated with menopause. These conditions include atrophic vaginitis, menopausal symptoms, dyspareunia, vulvovaginal atrophy, and genitourinary syndrome of menopause. The suppository is designed to be inserted into the vagina, where it gradually dissolves to release the medication over a sustained period.

The medication contains two key active ingredients: estradiol and estriol. Estradiol works to reduce inflammation and restore the natural hormonal balance within the body, which can be disrupted during menopause.

The combination of estradiol and estriol in this formulation not only helps to manage the symptoms of menopause but also reduces the risk of developing complications associated with this stage of life. These complications can include osteoporosis and urinary tract infections. The suppository is typically used once daily for a period of up to 12 weeks. It can also be used in conjunction with other treatments, such as hormone replacement therapy, to provide comprehensive management of menopausal symptoms.

Patients should be aware that the use of this suppository may cause some initial irritation or a burning sensation upon insertion. If these symptoms persist, it is recommended to contact a healthcare provider for advice. This formulation is designed to provide targeted relief for menopausal symptoms, and any questions or concerns about its use or effects should be directed to a healthcare professional.

Enter the formula as a compound

Compounded preparations have no NDC, so this formula will not appear in your EHR's drug search. Use your system's compound, non-formulary, or free-text prescription entry and name the preparation exactly as written in step 3. If your EHR forces you to pick a listed drug, pick the closest entry for the active ingredient and put the full formula in the prescription body (the Sig or directions field), not in Notes to Pharmacy.

Compounded preparations have no NDC and will not appear in your drug search. For EPCS to validate, select a drug entry your EHR recognizes as controlled, usually the bulk powder entry for the active ingredient (for example Ketamine (bulk) powder, not a branded product), then put the full formula from step 3 in the prescription body. A free-text entry that does not validate as controlled will be rejected by your EPCS module.
