Formula Information

Estriol 0.1%/Testosterone 0.1% Vaginal Gel is a specially compounded medication designed to address a range of gynecological conditions. This unique formulation combines two naturally occurring hormones, estriol and testosterone. Estriol, a type of estrogen, and testosterone, an androgen, work together to alleviate symptoms associated with menopause, vaginal atrophy, and low libido.

This gel-like semisolid formulation is dispensed in a tube for easy and controlled application in the vaginal area. The medication is absorbed directly into the bloodstream through the vaginal tissue, providing targeted relief from symptoms such as hot flashes, night sweats, and vaginal dryness. It can also enhance libido and sexual satisfaction, and alleviate discomfort associated with vaginal atrophy, including itching, burning, and pain during intercourse.

Estriol 0.1%/Testosterone 0.1% Vaginal Gel is considered a appropriate treatment option for many patients. However, as with any medication, it is crucial to discuss potential risks and side effects with your healthcare provider before starting treatment. Some common side effects may include nausea, headache, and breast tenderness.

Drug Interactions

A small arrow pointing down

Estriol 0.1%/Testosterone 0.1% Vaginal Gel is a specially formulated treatment designed for the management of various symptoms associated with menopause, including vulvovaginal atrophy and dyspareunia. The gel is dispensed in a tube for easy and controlled application in the vaginal area, providing both medication and lubrication for therapeutic purposes.

The gel contains two key active ingredients: Estriol, a weak estrogen, and Testosterone. Estriol works to alleviate vaginal dryness and irritation, common symptoms of menopause. Testosterone, on the other hand, is known to enhance libido and sexual satisfaction. The combination of these hormones may also contribute to a reduced risk of urinary tract infections.

Patients are advised to use the gel as directed, ensuring to avoid contact with the eyes. It is also recommended that a barrier method of contraception is used while using this product, due to the presence of hormones. Regular monitoring for signs of endometrial hyperplasia or cancer is crucial, and any unusual vaginal bleeding should be reported to a healthcare provider immediately.

Patients should also be vigilant for signs of an allergic reaction to the gel, which may include symptoms such as rash, hives, itching, difficulty breathing, or swelling of the face, lips, tongue, or throat. If any of these symptoms occur, immediate medical attention should be sought.

However, it is important to use the product responsibly and under the guidance of a healthcare provider to ensure safety and efficacy.

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.
