Pregnenolone 25 mg Slow Release Capsules is a meticulously compounded medication, specifically designed to address a range of health conditions. This formulation encapsulates 25 mg of pregnenolone, a hormone naturally synthesized by the human body, within a slow-release capsule.

How Does it Work

A small arrow pointing down

Pregnenolone 25 mg Slow Release Capsules are a hormone supplement designed to treat a variety of conditions, including adrenal fatigue, menopause, and depression. This formulation is encapsulated with Methocel E4M, a controlled-release polymer, which allows for a gradual release of the hormone into the body over an extended period of time. This slow release mechanism provides a more consistent level of hormone throughout the day, reducing the risk of side effects associated with sudden spikes in hormone levels.

Pregnenolone is a hormone naturally produced in the body and plays a crucial role in the production of other hormones, such as testosterone, estrogen, and progesterone.

Supplementing with Pregnenolone is thought to help improve these symptoms in individuals suffering from adrenal fatigue, menopause, and depression.

When taking Pregnenolone 25 mg Slow Release Capsules, it is essential to adhere to the instructions provided by your healthcare provider. The capsules should be taken once daily, preferably with food, and at the same time each day to ensure a consistent level of hormone in the body.

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.
