Evorel Patches (25, 50, 75, 100mcg)

Description

What this medicine is for

Evorel Patches are a transdermal Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) used to relieve menopausal symptoms in postmenopausal women.

They contain estradiol, a form of estrogen, and help manage symptoms such as hot flushes, night sweats, mood changes, sleep disturbances, and vaginal dryness associated with menopause.

Evorel Patches are available in 25mcg, 50mcg, 75mcg, and 100mcg strengths, allowing treatment to be tailored to individual needs.

How it works

Evorel Patches deliver estradiol through the skin directly into the bloodstream.

Estradiol replaces the estrogen levels that naturally decline during menopause, helping to relieve menopausal symptoms and improve overall quality of life.

The transdermal delivery system provides consistent hormone levels and avoids first-pass metabolism through the liver.
