ESTROGENS, WITH OR WITHOUT A
PROGESTAGEN TO PREVENT HEART
ATTACKS, STROKE OR DEMENTIA.
A study called the Women’s Health
Initiative indicated increased risk of
heart attack, stroke, breast cancer,
and blood clots in the legs or lungs
in women receiving treatment with
a product containing conjugated
estrogens 0.625 mg and the
progestagen medroxyprogesterone
acetate (MPA). The researchers
stopped the study after 5 years
when it was determined the risks
were greater than the benefits in this
group. The Women’s Health
Initiative Memory Study indicated
increased risk of dementia in
women aged 65-79 years taking
conjugated estrogens and MPA.
There are no comparable data
currently available for other doses
of conjugated estrogens and MPA

WARNING
Estrogens and progestagens should not be used for the prevention of
cardiovascular disease or
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
conjugated estrogens
(0.625 mg) combined with medroxyprogesterone acetate (2.5 mg) relative
to placebo (see
‘Section 5.1 Pharmacodynamic Properties’ - ‘Clinical trials’
and ‘Section 4.4 Special Warnings
and Precautions for Use’).
The WHI study reported increased risks of stroke and deep vein
thrombosis in postmenopausal
women (50 to 79 years of age) during 6.8 years of treatment with
conjugated estrogens
(0.625 mg) relative to placebo (see ‘Section 5.1 Pharmacodynamic
Properties’ - ‘Clinical trials’
and ‘Section 4.4 Special Warnings and Precautions for Use’).
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
to
5.2
years
of
treatment
with
conjugated
estrogens,
with
or
without
medroxyprogesterone acetate, relative to placebo. It is unknown
whether this finding applies
to younger postmenopausal women (see ‘Section 5.1 Pharmacodynamic
Properties’ - ‘Clinical
trials’ and ‘Section 4.4 Special Warnings and Precautions for
Use’).
Other doses of conjugated estrogens and medroxyprogesterone acetate,
and other combinations
and dosage forms of estrogens and progestagens 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 progestagens should be
prescribed at the lowest
effective doses and for the shortest duratio
