Evadiol Tablet

Evadiol Tablet – Estradiol 2 mg by Intas

Evadiol Tablet from Intas Pharmaceuticals contains Estradiol 2 mg, the principal female sex hormone, used as hormone replacement therapy. After menopause the ovaries stop producing oestrogen, and the symptoms that follow – hot flushes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, burning and itching – are the body reacting to that shortfall. Evadiol replaces the missing hormone, which relieves those symptoms and also slows the accelerated bone loss that follows menopause, helping guard against osteoporosis. Pack of 28 tablets. Prescription required.

Precautions

• Long-term HRT carries known risks – a raised risk of breast and endometrial cancer, blood clots, stroke and heart disease. Your doctor will weigh these against your symptoms and review the need at least yearly
• If you still have a womb, oestrogen is normally given with a progestogen to protect the endometrium – oestrogen alone raises endometrial cancer risk
• Unsafe in pregnancy; use with caution while breastfeeding
• Tell your doctor about any history of breast cancer, blood clots, stroke, liver disease or unexplained vaginal bleeding
• Common side effects include headache, nausea, breast tenderness, bloating, abdominal cramps and irregular vaginal bleeding
• Report any unusual vaginal bleeding, breast lump, leg swelling or sudden breathlessness immediately. May cause drowsiness – avoid driving until you know how it affects you
