Provera - Medroxyprogesterone acetate

In 1992, the US FDA approved a long-acting contraceptive device containing synthetic progestin medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) hormones. Manufactured by Pfizer, Inc., it is sold under the trade name Depo-Provera . It is typically injected into a woman s buttocks or upper arm, and renders her temporarily sterile for up to 3 months. ... [Pg.22]

Medroxyprogesterone acetate and its metabolites are excreted in breast milk, so women who breastfeed should wait until 6 weeks post partum before starting Depo-Provera, when the infant s enzyme system should be more mature. Norethisterone enantate 200 mg (Noristerat) is shorter acting than Depo-Provera, 8 weeks, and is used to provide contraception after administration of the rubella vaccine, and until a partner s vasectomy has taken effect. It can also be used in the longer-term but only on a named patient basis. [Pg.727]

Progestins A synthetic progestin, medroxyprogesterone acetate (Provera), has been used for male contraceptive trials alone or in combination with nandrolone (a synthetic androgen). When given once monthly for 2-3 months, the combined treatment caused azoospermia in about one-half of the subjects. [Pg.790]

Long-acting injectable analogues of the sex hormones (16.5) are also used. Depo Provera is injected every 3 months as a microcrystalline aqueous suspension. The active compound, medroxyprogesterone acetate, dissolves slowly as needed. Another compound that is injected once a month is an ester that probably hydrolyzes slowly. [Pg.486]
