PRESCRIPTION DRUG
femhrt is indicated in women with an intact uterus for the: - Treatment of moderate to severe vasomotor symptoms associated with the menopause. - Prevention of postmenopausal osteoporosis. When prescribing solely for the prevention of postmenopausal osteoporosis, therapy should only be considered for women at significant risk of osteoporosis. Non-estrogen medications should be carefully considered. The mainstays for decreasing the risk of postmenopausal osteoporosis are weight-bearing exercise, adequate calcium and vitamin D intake, and when indicated, pharmacologic therapy. Postmenopausal women require an average of 1500 mg/day of elemental calcium. Therefore, when not contraindicated, calcium supplementation may be helpful for women with suboptimal dietary intake. Vitamin D supplementation of 400-800 IU/day may also be required to ensure adequate daily intake in postmenopausal women. Risk factors for osteoporosis include low bone mineral density, low estrogen levels, family history of osteoporosis, previou

New Drug Application
FEMHRT - NORETHINDRONE ACETATE/ETHINYL ESTRADIOL TABLET PHYSICIANS TOTAL CARE, INC. ---------- FEMHRT (NORETHINDRONE ACETATE/ETHINYL ESTRADIOL TABLETS) WARNING Estrogens and progestins should not be used for the prevention of cardiovascular disease or dementia. (See WARNINGS, CARDIOVASCULAR DISORDERS and DEMENTIA.) The Women’s Health Initiative (WHI) study reported increased risks of myocardial infarction, stroke, invasive breast cancer, pulmonary emboli, and deep vein thrombosis in postmenopausal women (50 to 79 years of age) during 5 years of treatment with oral conjugated estrogens (CE 0.625 mg) combined with medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA 2.5 mg) relative to placebo. (See CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY, CLINICAL STUDIES and WARNINGS, CARDIOVASCULAR DISORDERS and MALIGNANT NEOPLASMS, _BREAST CANCER_.) The Women’s Health Initiative Memory Study (WHIMS), a substudy of WHI, reported increased risk of developing probable dementia in postmenopausal women 65 years of age or older during 4 years of treatment with oral conjugated estrogens plus medroxyprogesterone acetate relative to placebo. It is unknown whether this finding applies to younger postmenopausal women. (See CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY, CLINICAL STUDIES, WARNINGS, DEMENTIA and PRECAUTIONS, GERIATRIC USE.) Other doses of oral conjugated estrogens with medroxyprogesterone acetate, and other combinations and dosage forms of estrogens and progestins were not studied in the WHI clinical trials and, in the absence of comparable data, these risks should be assumed to be similar. Because of these risks, estrogens with or without progestins should be prescribed at the lowest effective doses and for the shortest duration consistent with treatment goals and risks for the individual woman. DESCRIPTION _femhrt_ (norethindrone acetate/ethinyl estradiol tablets) is a continuous dosage regimen of a progestin- estrogen combination for oral administration. The following two strengths of _femhrt _tablets are available: _femhrt_ (0.5 mg/2.5 mcg): Each white oval tablet contains 0.5 সম্পূর্ণ নথি পড়ুন
