Product Introduction
EV 2mg Tablet contains estradiol, an active ingredient belonging to vaginal Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) medicines. It is a hormone classified as an estrogen with identical properties to the oestrogen naturally produced by women's ovaries. EV 2mg Tablet is indicated for menopausal symptoms including vaginal atrophy (dryness or irritation of the vagina) in elderly women who have completed menopause.
Do not use EV 2mg Tablet if you are allergic to estradiol or its constituents. It is contraindicated in patients with breast cancer or any oestrogen receptor-sensitive cancer. EV 2mg Tablet should not be used if you have a clotting disorder, blood clots in the veins (lungs or legs), or unexplained vaginal bleeding. It is contraindicated in patients with a history of heart attack, stroke, angina, or abnormal liver function tests. EV 2mg Tablet is not given to patients with porphyria, a rare inherited blood disorder.
Estrogen intake elevates the risk of gallbladder disease. Discontinue estrogen if you experience cholestatic jaundice, severe hypertriglyceridemia, severe hypercalcemia, or vision loss. Close monitoring is advised in women receiving thyroid replacement treatment. Inform your doctor if you have vaginal bleeding, heart, kidney, lung or liver problems, diabetes, asthma, high blood pressure, or hearing disorder. Discuss with your doctor if you are planning pregnancy, may be pregnant, or are breastfeeding. Inform your healthcare provider of your complete medical history and all medicines you are taking, including herbal, vitamin, and over-the-counter medicines.
Uses
Relieve menopausal symptoms of 'vaginal atrophy' (in the vagina such as dryness or irritation) Treatment for hypogonadism, castration, or primary ovarian failure-related hypoestrogenism Preventing osteoporosis after menopause
How it works
EV 2mg Tablet primarily acts by binding to estrogen receptors (ERs) present on the surface of target cells upon binding to its receptor, EV 2mg Tablet induces a conformational change in the receptor, leading to its activation. EV 2mg Tablet replaces estrogen (female sex hormone) and prevents the symptoms of menopause, like vaginal irritation or dryness.
How to Use

Do not crush, chew, or break the tablet, as this may affect its effectiveness or increase the risk of side effects.

Expert Tips
It is recommended to examine your breast (mammogram) to avoid the risk of breast cancer caused by the drug and inform your doctor if you have any changes in skin colour. Don't apply it on your breast, eye, or other part of the body apart from the application site. Inform your doctor if you have uterus cancer or a history of blood clots. Regularly monitoring liver function tests, thyroid tests, bone mineral density, and blood pressure is advised as treatment with EV 2mg Tablet can alter these values.
