Evalon Cream
Evalon Cream is a specialized hormonal treatment containing Estriol, a naturally occurring form of the female hormone estrogen. It is primarily indicated for the treatment of atrophic vaginitis and other urogenital symptoms associated with the decline of estrogen levels during menopause or following surgical procedures. As estrogen levels drop, the vaginal tissues can become thin, dry, and less elastic, leading to discomfort, itching, and recurring infections. Evalon works locally to restore the health of the vaginal mucosa, improving tissue thickness and promoting the natural lubrication necessary for comfort and intimate wellness.
Key Features
- Delivers Estriol directly to the affected tissues, reducing the risk of systemic side effects.
- Restores the thickness, elasticity, and moisture of the vaginal walls.
- Helps alleviate symptoms of urinary urgency and frequency associated with menopause.
- Normalizes vaginal pH to support healthy bacteria and reduce the risk of recurring infections.
- Includes a measured applicator for precise dosing and ease of use.
Key Ingredients
- Estriol (1mg per gram)
- Purified Water
- Octyldodecanol
- Cetyl Palmitate
- Glycerin
Precautions
- Do not use Evalon if you have a history of breast cancer, estrogen-dependent tumors, or undiagnosed vaginal bleeding.
- Consult your doctor if you have a history of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), pulmonary embolism, or recent stroke.
- Long-term estrogen therapy should be monitored by a healthcare professional with regular gynecological examinations.
- Use the lowest effective dose for the shortest duration necessary to manage your symptoms.
- This medication is not intended for use during pregnancy or while breastfeeding.
- Like many topical creams, Evalon may weaken latex products such as condoms or diaphragms; use alternative contraceptive methods if necessary.
How to Use
- Wash your hands thoroughly before use. Remove the cap from the tube and attach the disposable or reusable applicator.
- Gently squeeze the tube until the applicator is filled to the prescribed mark (usually indicated on the plunger).
- Lie on your back with your knees bent. Gently insert the applicator into the vagina as far as it will comfortably go.
- Slowly depress the plunger to release the cream, then carefully remove the applicator from the vagina.
- It is best to apply Evalon Cream at bedtime to ensure the medication remains in contact with the tissues while you sleep.
- Typically used once daily for the first few weeks, followed by a maintenance dose of twice a week, or as specifically directed by your physician.
- If using a reusable applicator, wash it thoroughly with warm soapy water after each use and allow it to air dry.
