Formula Information

A small arrow pointing down

Estrone 0.01% Vaginal Cream is a semisolid formulation, dispensed in a tube, designed for convenient and precise application in the vaginal area. This topical medication is used to treat a variety of gynecological conditions, particularly those associated with menopause and post-menopause. It is a topical estrogen cream that is used to alleviate symptoms such as vaginal dryness, itching, and burning, which are common during menopause.

One of the key uses of Estrone 0.01% Vaginal Cream is in the treatment of vaginal atrophy, a condition that can occur after menopause. Vaginal atrophy is characterized by the thinning, drying, and inflammation of the vaginal walls due to a reduction in estrogen. By delivering a controlled dose of estrogen directly to the affected area, Estrone 0.01% Vaginal Cream helps to restore the natural balance of hormones in the body, thereby reducing the symptoms of vaginal atrophy.

Furthermore, Estrone 0.01% Vaginal Cream can also help to reduce the risk of other conditions such as urinary tract infections, which are more common in post-menopausal women due to changes in the urinary tract. By maintaining a healthy balance of hormones, this medication can help to maintain the health of the urinary tract and reduce the risk of infection.

It is important to note that Estrone 0.01% Vaginal Cream should be used as directed by a healthcare professional. The cream is usually applied once or twice daily, directly to the affected area of the vagina. Always follow the instructions provided by your doctor or pharmacist when using this medication. If you have any questions about the use of Estrone 0.01% Vaginal Cream, please consult with your healthcare provider.

Drug Interactions

A small arrow pointing down

Estrone 0.01% Vaginal Cream is a compounded formulation specifically designed for the treatment of vulvar and vaginal atrophy due to menopause. This semisolid formulation is also indicated for the management of moderate to severe dyspareunia, a symptom of vulvar and vaginal atrophy, associated with menopause.

It is important to note that Estrone 0.01% Vaginal Cream should not be used by women with undiagnosed abnormal genital bleeding, known or suspected estrogen-dependent neoplasia, active thrombophlebitis or thromboembolic disorders, active or recent arterial thromboembolic disease (such as stroke or myocardial infarction), known or suspected breast cancer, known or suspected pregnancy, or hypersensitivity to estrone or any of the components of the cream.

Caution is advised for women with a history of endometriosis, uterine fibroids, or other estrogen-dependent neoplasia. Women with a history of depression, gallbladder disease, or liver disease should also use this medication with caution.

Any unusual vaginal bleeding should be reported immediately. During treatment with Estrone 0.01% Vaginal Cream, patients are advised to use a non-hormonal method of contraception.

How Does it Work

A small arrow pointing down

Estrone 0.01% Vaginal Cream is a specially compounded formulation designed to alleviate symptoms associated with menopause such as hot flashes, night sweats, and vaginal dryness. This semisolid formulation is dispensed in a tube for easy and precise application directly to the affected vaginal area, typically once or twice daily as per the doctor's instructions.

The active ingredient, Estrone, is a form of estrogen, a hormone integral to the female reproductive system. When applied vaginally, Estrone works to restore the natural hormonal balance in the body, thereby reducing menopausal symptoms. Additionally, it aids in thickening the vaginal walls, which can alleviate discomfort and enhance lubrication.

While Estrone 0.01% Vaginal Cream is generally well-tolerated, some users may experience side effects such as itching, burning, or skin irritation, as well as changes in vaginal discharge. It is crucial to contact your healthcare provider if you experience any of these side effects.

Adherence to the prescribed dosage and duration of use is essential when using Estrone 0.01% Vaginal Cream. Overuse or prolonged use beyond the recommended period can lead to adverse effects. If you have any queries regarding the usage of this medication, it is advisable to consult your healthcare provider.

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.
