Femoston

You should take Femoston exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider. The usual dose is one tablet daily, with or without food. Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water. If you forget a dose, take it as soon as you remember, but do not take a double dose to make up for the missed one. If you experience any unusual symptoms or have concerns about your dosage, consult your doctor. The effects of Femoston last throughout the day until the next dose. If you have any unusual vaginal bleeding, inform your doctor promptly.

Each Femoston tablet contains 1mg of estradiol and 10mg of dydrogesterone. The tablet also includes excipients such as lactose monohydrate, maize starch, povidone, talc, magnesium stearate, hypromellose, macrogol 6000, titanium dioxide (E171), and iron oxide pigment yellow (E172).

Common side effects of Femoston may include breast pain, headache, nausea, and vaginal bleeding. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience symptoms such as chest pain, shortness of breath, severe headaches, vision changes, or signs of a blood clot (e.g., swelling or pain in the legs). If you notice any unusual symptoms while taking Femoston, speak to your doctor promptly.

Do not take Femoston if you have a history of breast cancer, blood clots, liver disease, or unexplained vaginal bleeding. This medication is not suitable for pregnant or breastfeeding women. If you have certain conditions like heart disease, high blood pressure, or a history of strokes, inform your doctor before taking Femoston. It's essential to discuss your medical history and current medications with your healthcare provider to ensure Femoston is safe for you.
