How to take, the dosage

To be taken orally.

The long term use of the combination estrogen and progestogen should be taken daily without interruption, one tablet daily for a 28-day cycle.

Femostone® Conti Mini should be taken continuously, without interruption of tablets from different packs.

To begin and continue treatment of postmenopausal symptoms, the lowest effective dose should be used for the shortest period of time.

Long-term combination therapy may be started with Femostone® Conti Mini or Femostone® Conti depending on the time since the onset of menopause and the severity of symptoms. Depending on the clinical response, the dosage can subsequently be adjusted according to individual needs.

Patients who are transitioning from long-term sequential or cyclical use of other medications should complete a 28-day treatment cycle, after which they may switch to Femostone® Conti Mini. Patients who are transitioning from long-term combination medications can begin treatment with Femostone® Conti Mini at any time.

If the Femoston® Conti Mini tablet is missed, it should be taken as soon as possible. If more than 12 hours have passed, treatment should be continued with the next tablet without taking the missed dose. In such cases, the chance of breakthrough bleeding or bleeding may be increased.

Femoston® Conti Mini can be taken regardless of meals.

Interaction

There have been no studies of drug interactions.

The effectiveness of estrogens and progestagens may be impaired

Estrogens can interfere with the metabolism of other drugs

Estrogens can inhibit CYP450 enzymes involved in drug metabolism through competitive inhibition. This should especially be considered for drugs with a narrow therapeutic index, such as:

Clinically, this may lead to increased plasma levels of such substances in toxic concentrations. Thus, close monitoring of the medication over an extended period of time may be required, as well as dose reduction of tacrolimus, fentanyl, cyclosporine A, and theophylline.

Contraindications

Side effects

In clinical trials in patients treated with estradiol/didrogesterone combination therapy, the most common problems were: headache, abdominal pain, breast tension/pain, and back pain.

Overdose

Both estradiol and dydrogesterone are low-toxicity substances.

In an overdose, symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, breast sensitivity, dizziness, abdominal pain, drowsiness/fatigue, and bleeding withdrawal may occur.

It is unlikely that overdose will require any specific symptomatic treatment. This is also true in cases of overdose in children.
