Activelle® - Canada Product Information

Activelle® is a type of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) used to treat symptoms of menopause. It contains two hormones: estradiol (an estrogen) and norethindrone acetate (a progestin).

Activelle® is prescribed to:

• Treat moderate to severe hot flashes and night sweats due to menopause.
• Treat dryness, itching, and burning in and around the vagina due to menopause.
• Only be used by women who still have their uterus, as the progestin component helps prevent overgrowth of the lining of the uterus (endometrial hyperplasia).
