Estrace Medication Drug
Information
The following information is
intended to supplement, not substitute for, the expertise and
judgment of your physician, pharmacist or other healthcare
professional. It should not be construed to indicate that use of
the drug is safe, appropriate, or effective for you. Consult
your healthcare professional before using this drug.
Estrace /Estrogen may increase the risk
of heart attack, stroke, breast cancer, endometrial cancer, and blood
clots in the lungs or legs. Tell your doctor if you smoke and if you have
or have ever had a heart attack; a stroke; blood clots; high blood
pressure; high blood levels of cholesterol or fats; or diabetes. If you
are having surgery or will be on bedrest, talk to your doctor about
stopping Estrace /Estrogen at least 4 to 6 weeks before the surgery or
bedrest. If you experience any of the following side effects, call your
doctor immediately: sudden, severe headache; sudden, severe vomiting;
sudden partial or complete loss of vision; speech problems; dizziness or
faintness; weakness or numbness of an arm or a leg; unusual vaginal
bleeding; crushing chest pain or chest heaviness; coughing up blood;
sudden shortness of breath; or calf pain. Talk to your doctor about the
risks and benefits of taking Estrace /Estrogen.
Online Estrace Use Indication:
Estrace /Estrogen
comes as a tablet to take by mouth, patches to apply externally to the
skin, and as a cream to be inserted into the vagina.
Oral Estrace
/Estrogen is usually taken by mouth with food or milk either every day or
on a cyclical basis: once a day for 21 days and then none for 7 days; then
the cycle is repeated. However, for treating cancer it usually is taken
three times a day every day for at least 3 months.
Skin patches are
usually applied either once or twice weekly for three weeks (on the same
days each week), followed by 1 week without the drug (patch); then the
cycle is repeated. The package is designed to help you remember when to
apply fresh skin patches.
To apply a skin
patch, follow the directions provided and these steps:
-
Remove the skin
patch from its protective pouch and peel off the protective strip,
exposing the adhesive surface.
-
Place the adhesive
side against a clean, dry, and not excessively hairy area of skin on the
trunk of your body, preferably your abdomen (not your waistline or
breasts, since tight clothing may rub the patch). Do not apply the patch
to oily, broken, or irritated skin.
-
Press the patch on
the selected site firmly with the palm of your hand for about 10
seconds, making sure that the edges adhere to your skin. If the patch
accidentally comes off, you can either reapply it or apply a fresh
patch, but follow your regular dosing schedule.
Remove and discard
the patch and apply a fresh patch according to the schedule prescribed by
your doctor. To prevent skin irritation, use a different site for each
application and wait at least 1 week before using a particular area again.
Used patches should be cut up and disposed in a way that keeps them out of
reach of children and pets.
To use the vaginal
cream, your doctor will set up a dosage schedule for you. If you are to
use it once a day, it is best to use it at bedtime. Follow the directions
that come with the vaginal cream and these steps:
-
Fill the special
applicator that comes with the cream to the level indicated.
-
Lie on your back
with your knees drawn upward and spread apart.
-
Gently insert the
applicator into the vagina; then push the plunger to release the
medication.
-
Withdraw the
applicator.
-
Discard the
applicator if it is disposable. If the applicator is reusable, pull it
apart and clean it with soap and warm water after each use.
-
Wash your hands
promptly.
Ask your pharmacist
or doctor any questions you have about using the vaginal cream. You may
wish to wear a sanitary napkin after inserting the cream to keep your
clothes clean.
Follow the
directions on your prescription label carefully, and ask your doctor or
pharmacist to explain any part you do not understand. Take Estrace
/Estrogen exactly as directed. Do not take more or less of it or take it
more often than prescribed by your doctor. Do not stop taking Estrace
/Estrogen without talking to your doctor.
Ask your pharmacist
or doctor for a copy of the manufacturer's information for the patient.
