How Does it Work

A small arrow pointing down

Progesterone 20 mg/ml Nasal Spray is a liquid formulation of progesterone, a hormone naturally produced by the body. This unique formulation is designed for administration directly into the nasal cavity, providing targeted local or systemic effects. It is used to treat a variety of conditions, including premenstrual syndrome (PMS), endometriosis, and menopausal symptoms.

The spray is absorbed into the bloodstream through the nasal mucosa, allowing the progesterone to be transported to the target tissues. This targeted delivery can help to reduce symptoms associated with the aforementioned conditions. For PMS, the spray can help to alleviate symptoms such as mood swings, irritability, and fatigue. For endometriosis, it can help to reduce pain and inflammation. In menopausal women, it can help to reduce hot flashes and night sweats.

When using Progesterone 20 mg/ml Nasal Spray, it is crucial to follow the instructions provided by your healthcare provider. The typical dosage is one spray per nostril, administered twice daily. Regular use is important for maintaining the effectiveness of the treatment, as missing doses can reduce its impact.

If you have any questions or concerns about using Progesterone 20 mg/ml Nasal Spray, it is recommended to consult with your healthcare provider or pharmacist. They can provide you with the necessary guidance to ensure you get the most out of your treatment.

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.
