READ ALL OF THIS LEAFLET CAREFULLY BEFORE YOU START TAKING THIS
MEDICINE.
•
Keep this leaflet. You may need to read it again.
•
This leaflet contains concise information about LIVIAL. If you have
any further questions, ask
your doctor or pharmacist.
•
This medicine has been prescribed for you. Do not pass it on to

if their medical condition seems similar to yours.
IMPORTANT THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT HORMONE REPLACEMENT THERAPY (HRT) AND
LIVIAL:
•
HRT is used for relief of symptoms occurring after menopause and
prevention of
osteoporosis in postmenopausal women.
•
LIVIAL is different from other HRT. Instead of actual hormones (such
as oestrogen and
progestogen) it contains tibolone. Your body breaks down tibolone to
make hormones. Its
effects and benefits are similar to combined HRT
•
Some women should not take LIVIAL because of current medical problems
or illnesses.
Please read section 2.1 “DO NOT USE LIVIAL” and talk to your
doctor before taking
LIVIAL.
•
Please tell your doctor before you start the treatment if you have
ever had any of the
problems listed in section “Special warnings concerning use of
LIVIAL”.
THERAPEUTIC GROUP: Urogenital system (including sex hormones).
The use of HRT or LIVIAL carries risks that need to be considered when
deciding whether to start
taking it, or whether to carry on taking it. This is especially
important if you are more than 60 years
old.
The experience in treating women with a premature menopause (due to
ovarian failure or surgery)
is limited. If you have a premature menopause the risks of using HRT
or LIVIAL may be different.
Please consult your doctor.
