RAVIMED TABLET 5MG
DESCRIPTION:
RAVIMED TABLET 5 MG: 7 mm, pink round tablet, scored on one side with
‘DUO 861’ marking and marking ‘duo’ on the other side.
COMPOSITION:
Each tablet contains Medroxyprogesterone Acetate 5 mg.
PHARMACODYNAMICS:
HUMAN: Medroxyprogesterone Acetate is a progestational agent. When
administered in recommended doses to women with adequate endogenous
oestrogen, it transforms
proliferative into secretory endometrium. Medroxyprogesterone Acetate
inhibits gonadotrophin production, which in turn prevents follicular
maturation and ovulation. Like
progesterone, Medroxyprogesterone Acetate is thermogenic. At the very
high dosage levels used in the treatment of certain cancers (500 mg
daily or more), corticoid-like activity
may be manifest.
PHARMACOKINETICS:
Medroxyprogesterone Acetate is an orally-active progestational steroid
having an apparent half-life of about 30 hours. Medroxyprogesterone
Acetate is rapidly absorbed after oral
administration. There is high interindividual variability in serum
levels after standard doses given by either route of administration.
Medroxyprogesterone Acetate is metabolised and conjugated in the
liver. Metabolic products are predominantly excreted in the urine both
as conjugated and free forms.
INDICATION:
1.
_CARCINOMA: _Palliative treatment of recurrent and or metastatic
breast or renal cell cancer and of inoperable recurrent or metastatic
endometrial carcinoma.
2.
_ENDOMETRIOSIS: _ For use in the treatment of visually proven
(laparoscopy) endometriosis where the required end-point of treatment
is pregnancy, or for the control of
symptoms when surgery is contraindicated or has been unsuccessful.
3.
Secondary amenorrhoea proven not due to pregnancy. In amenorrhoea
associated with a poorly developed proliferative endometrium,
conventional oestrogen therapy may be
employed in conjunction with Medroxyprogesterone Acetate.
4.
Abnormal uterine bleeding in the absence of organic pathology.
