PREMARIN (Conjugated Estrogens Tablets, CSD) - Canada Product Information

---

Premarin is a medication that contains a mixture of estrogen hormones. It is used to treat symptoms of menopause such as hot flashes, vaginal dryness, and to prevent osteoporosis (bone loss). Estrogen is a female hormone that regulates many processes in the body.

WHO SHOULD USE PREMARIN?

Premarin is prescribed for:

Relief of menopausal and postmenopausal symptoms like hot flashes and vaginal dryness.

Prevention of osteoporosis in women who are at significant risk.

Treatment of low estrogen levels due to various causes like hypogonadism, castration, or primary ovarian failure.

Treatment of atrophic vaginitis and vulvar atrophy.

WHO SHOULD NOT USE PREMARIN?

Do not use Premarin if you:

Are allergic to any ingredients in the medication.

Have liver disease or dysfunction.

Have or suspect you have estrogen-dependent cancer (like endometrial cancer or breast cancer).

Have unexplained abnormal vaginal bleeding.

Are pregnant or suspect you may be pregnant.

Have a history of blood clots or stroke.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

Cardiovascular Risks: Premarin may increase the risk of heart attack, stroke, blood clots, and deep vein thrombosis. It should not be used to prevent heart disease or dementia.

Cancer Risks: Long-term use of estrogen alone increases the risk of endometrial cancer. Using estrogen with a progestin can reduce this risk. There is also an increased risk of breast cancer with combined estrogen-progestin therapy.

Regular Check-ups: It's important to have regular medical check-ups, including breast exams and mammograms.
