Maintane 5mg Tablet

Maintane 5mg Tablet contains Allylestrenol, a synthetic progestogen, primarily used in obstetric and gynaecological conditions to support pregnancy and manage hormonal imbalances. It belongs to the therapeutic class of progestins, which mimic the activity of natural progesterone in the body. Allylestrenol is commonly prescribed to prevent threatened miscarriage, recurrent pregnancy loss, and to manage certain cases of preterm labour and intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR). The product is typically used under medical supervision during pregnancy, especially in patients with a history of hormonal deficiencies or uterine instability. While generally well-tolerated, Maintane 5mg should not be used in patients with hormone-sensitive cancers, liver disease, unexplained vaginal bleeding, or a history of thrombophlebitis or thromboembolic disorders. Caution is advised during breastfeeding, and its use should be avoided if allergic reactions to progestins are known.

Maintane 5mg tablet uses: Preventing threatened or recurrent miscarriage Managing preterm labor Supporting high-risk pregnancies with intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) Treatment of habitual abortion linked to luteal phase deficiency

Allylestrenol tablets 5mg maintane works by mimicking the natural hormone progesterone, which is essential for maintaining a healthy pregnancy. It stabilises the endometrial lining (the inner lining of the uterus), reduces uterine contractions, and supports the overall hormonal environment needed to sustain a pregnancy. By doing so, it helps prevent complications such as miscarriage and premature delivery in at-risk women. Unlike some other progestins, Allylestrenol has minimal androgenic activity, making it suitable for prolonged use during pregnancy when prescribed.
