Before using
Irregular duration of cycles and irregular occurrence and duration of periods caused by progesterone deficiency.
Combined with an estrogenic substance Duphaston can be applied in secondary amenorrhoea dysfunctional uterine bleeding and post-menopausal complaints where endogenous progesterone deficiency is implicated.
Directions
In general
The dosage schemes below are meant as general recommendations. For optimal therapeutic effect the dosages are to be adapted to the nature and severity of the disorder.
In irregular cycles due to endogenous progesterone deficiency
Duphaston 5 to 10 mg is recommended especially in irregular cycles due to shortened luteal phase (ie pre-menopause). Treatment should be repeated for several cycles.
In secondary amenorrhoea
Administration of Duphaston in combination with an estrogen is usually recommended as in these conditions endogenous progesterone deficiency is nearly always accompanied by estrogen deficiency. 0 05 mg ethinylestradiol is administered each day from the 1st to the 25th day of the cycle and 5 mg Duphaston is added twice daily from the 11th to the 25th day. Five days after the subsequent withdrawal bleeding the same is repeated to imitate a natural cycle.
In dysfunctional uterine bleeding
The symptomatic treatment is aimed at stopping the bleeding and including a subsequent withdrawal bleeding.
To stop bleeding: Duphaston 10 mg together with 0 10 mg ethinylestradiol twice daily for 5 to 7 days.
To prevent heavy bleedings: Duphaston 5 mg twice daily from day 11 to day 25 of the cycle if necessary combined with an estrogen during the first half of the cycle.
In post-menopausal complaints
If for the symptomatic treatment of post-menopausal complaints estrogens are used (hormone replacement therapy — HRT) Duphaston 10 mg is used to counteract the effects of unopposed estrogens on the endometrium. A subsequent withdrawal bleeding is induced.
If on continuous estrogen therapy: Duphaston 10 mg twice daily during the first 12 to 14 days of each calendar month.
If on cyclic estrogen therapy: Duphaston 10 mg twice daily during the last 12 to 14 days of the treatment.
