Progesterone

Generic name: Progesterone
Brand names: Prometrium

Why is Progesterone prescribed?

Progesterone is prescribed for postmenopausal women who are taking estrogen (hormone replacement therapy); it prevents a buildup of the lining of the uterus and abnormal bleeding. Progesterone also may be prescribed to restore menstruation if your menstrual periods have stopped.

Most important fact about Progesterone

Progesterone increases the risk of blood clots, which can lead to phlebitis, breathing problems, vision problems, or stroke. If you experience any symptoms that might suggest the onset of a clot-related disorder--pain with swelling, warmth, and redness in a leg vein, coughing or shortness of breath, loss of vision or double vision, migraine, or weakness or numbness in an arm or leg--stop taking Progesterone and see your doctor immediately.

How should you take Progesterone?

Take Progesterone as directed by your doctor. If Progesterone is prescribed to prevent abnormal buildup of the uterine lining, you will take it once a day for 12 days in a 28-day cycle. If it is prescribed to treat missed menstrual periods, you will take it for 10 days. Progesterone is taken in the evening.

--If you miss a dose...

Take it as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the one you missed and go back to your regular schedule. Never take 2 doses at the same time.

--Storage instructions...

Store at room temperature. Protect from light and moisture.

What side effects may occur?

Side effects cannot be anticipated. If any develop or change in intensity, inform your doctor as soon as possible. Only your doctor can determine if it is safe for you to continue taking Progesterone.

  • More common side effects may include:
    Abdominal cramping, back pain, bloating, breast tenderness or pain, chest pain, constipation, coughing, depression, diarrhea, dizziness, emotional instability, fatigue, headache, hot flashes, irritability, joint pain, muscle pain, nausea, night sweats, swelling of hands and feet, upper respiratory infection, urinary problems, vaginal discharge, vaginal dryness, viral infection, vomiting, worry

Why should Progesterone not be prescribed?

Do not take Progesterone if you have ever had an allergic reaction to it. Progesterone contains peanut oil, so you should also avoid Progesterone if you are allergic to peanuts.

Do not take Progesterone if you are pregnant or have had an incomplete miscarriage. Avoid it if you have ever had a blood clotting disorder or a stroke. Do not take Progesterone if you have breast or genital cancer, unexplained vaginal bleeding, or severe liver disease.

Special warnings about Progesterone

To rule out cancer and other problems before you start taking Progesterone, your doctor will give you a complete physical exam, including examination of your breasts and pelvic organs. You also should have a Pap test (cervical smear). Tell your doctor if you experience any irregular vaginal bleeding while taking Progesterone.

Remember that Progesterone can cause clot-related disorders. Check with your doctor immediately if you experience any of the warning signs listed in "Most important fact about Progesterone."

Progesterone may cause some degree of fluid retention. If you have a medical condition that could be made worse by fluid retention--such as epilepsy, migraine, asthma, or a heart or kidney problem--make sure your doctor knows about it.

Progesterone makes some women depressed. If you"ve suffered from serious depression in the past, alert your doctor if you think you"re having a relapse You will probably need to stop taking Progesterone.

Progesterone has a slight effect on insulin and blood sugar levels. If you have diabetes, your doctor will want to watch you closely while you are taking Progesterone.

Progesterone may make you dizzy or drowsy. Do not drive or operate machinery until you know how Progesterone affects you. If you experience extreme drowsiness or dizziness, the doctor may tell you to take Progesterone at bedtime.

Because progesterone is processed in the liver and kidneys, the doctor will monitor you closely if you have a mild liver or kidney disorder. If you have severe liver disease, the drug should not be used at all.

In rare cases, women taking Progesterone suffer a sudden drop in blood pressure that can cause them to faint.

Possible food and drug interactions when taking Progesterone

Tell the doctor if you"re taking the antifungal medication ketoconazole (Nizoral) or a similar drug. It"s possible that it may increase Progesterone"s effect.
