Meprate 10mg Tablet

Introduction

Meprate 10mg Tablet 10s is used for contraception, treatment of abnormal uterine bleeding, managing endometriosis, and as a component of hormone replacement therapy.

Medroxyprogesterone acetate belongs to the class of medications known as progestins, synthetic forms of the hormone progesterone.

If used as contraception or hormone replacement therapy, follow the prescribed schedule strictly. Take MPA at the same time each day to maintain consistent levels in the body.

It's crucial to follow the prescribed dosage and guidance from a healthcare professional while using Medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA). If you encounter any adverse effects or have concerns during its use, consult your healthcare provider for assistance.

How it works

It is a synthetic progestin (female hormone). It functions by substituting the natural progesterone hormone when the body is unable to produce it. This addresses issues like painful, irregular, or absent menstrual periods. Additionally, it prevents excessive growth of the uterine lining in menopausal women using estrogen (another female hormone).
