POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
Posology
Not intended for use in children.
_Metropathia haemorrhagica (dysfunctional uterine bleeding): _1 tablet
3 times daily for 10 days.
Bleeding
is
arrested
usually
within
1-3
days.
A
withdrawal
bleeding
resembling
normal
menstruation occurs within 2-4 days after discontinuing treatment. One
tablet twice daily from
the 19
th
to the 26
th
day of the two subsequent cycles should be given to prevent recurrence
of
the condition.
To ensure treatment success, Primolut N must be taken for the full 10
days. Occasionally, slight
bleeding may occur after the initial suspension of bleeding. Treatment
should not be interrupted
or suspended in these cases.
If vaginal bleeding does not stop, despite correct tablet intake, an
organic cause or an extra-
genital factor (e.g. polyps, carcinoma of the cervix uteri or
endometrium, myoma, residua of
abortion, extra-uterine pregnancy, or coagulation disorders) must be
considered so that other
measures are then mostly required. This also applies to cases where
after an initial suspension
of bleeding, fairly heavy bleeding reoccurs during tablet intake.
_Premenstrual syndrome (including premenstrual mastalgia): _
Premenstrual symptoms such as
headache,
migraine,
breast
discomfort,
water
retention,
tachycardia,
and
psychological
disturbances may be relieved by the administration of 1-3 tablets
daily from the 19
th
to the 26
th
day of the cycle. Treatment should be repe
