Description

Information About Activella Generic

This medicine is an estrogen and progestin combination used to reduce menopausal symptoms. It is also used to prevent osteoporosis. This medicine may also be used to treat other conditions as determined by your doctor. There are several medications (e.g. raloxifene or bisphosphonates) that are safe and effective to prevent or treat bone loss. These medicines should be considered for use before estrogen/progestin HRT for osteoporosis. If you have other medical conditions as well and are prescribed estrogen/progestin HRT for more than one condition, consult your doctor about your treatment plan and its options.
