WHAT IS IN THIS LEAFLET
This leaflet answers some common
questions about DEPO-PROVERA.
It does not contain all the available
information. It does not take the
place of talking to your doctor or
pharmacist.
All medicines have risks and
benefits. Your doctor has weighed
the risks of you being treated with
DEPO-PROVERA against the
benefits it is expected to have for
you.
IF YOU HAVE ANY CONCERNS ABOUT

WHAT DEPO-
PROVERA IS USED FOR
The active ingredient of DEPO-
PROVERA, medroxyprogesterone
acetate, is a chemical similar to the
natural hormone progesterone.
Progesterone is produced by your
ovaries during the second half of
your monthly cycle.
There are several reasons why your
doctor may have prescribed DEPO-
PROVERA for you.
DEPO-PROVERA is used for the
following reasons:
CONTRACEPTION
DEPO-PROVERA is an injectable
form of contraception. Each injection
protects you from pregnancy for 3
months.
DEPO-PROVERA works by
inhibiting the hormones that are
needed for the release of the eggs
from the ovaries.
ENDOMETRIOSIS
Endometriosis is a condition in
which cells from the lining of the
uterus (womb) grow in places outside
the uterus.
During your period, these cells may
grow and break down in the same
way as those in the lining of the
uterus. This causes pain and
discomfort. DEPO-PROVERA helps
to stop the growth of the cells found
outside the uterus.
CANCER
DEPO-PROVERA is also used in the
treatment of certain types of cancer
including cancer of the breast, kidney
and endometrium (lining of the
uterus). It works by inhibiting the
growth of these types of cancer cells.
DEPO-PROVERA is not a cure for
cancer.
ASK YOUR DOCTOR IF YOU HAVE ANY
QUESTIONS ABOUT WHY THIS MEDICINE
HAS BEEN PRESCRIBED FOR YOU.
Your doctor may have prescribed it
for another reason.

4. CLINICAL PARTICULARS
4.1 THERAPEUTIC INDICATIONS
DEPO-PROVERA is indicated for:
•
ovulation suppression.
Since loss of bone mineral density (BMD) may occur in pre-menopausal
women who use
DEPO-PROVERA, particularly if treated long-term (greater than 2
years), women should be
assessed for risk factors for low BMD including a review of their
medical history, to determine
the risk of developing osteoporosis. This should be conducted before
the commencement of
treatment. A careful re-evaluation of the risks and benefits of
treatment beyond 2 years should
be carried out in those patients who need to remain on DEPO-PROVERA.
Women under the age of 18 years may be at risk of failing to achieve
their predicted peak BMD
(see section 4.4).
•
the treatment of endometriosis.
•
adjunctive and/or palliative treatment of recurrent and/or metastatic
endometrial or
renal carcinoma.
•
the treatment of hormonally-dependent recurrent breast cancer in
post-menopausal
women.
