Milprosa Vaginal Ring Dosage and Administration
Important Dosage and Administration Information
MILPROSA is not recommended for use with other vaginal products (such as antifungal products, vaginal lubricants, diaphragms, and condoms) because this concomitant use has not been studied and may alter the progesterone release and absorption from the vaginal system [see Warnings and Precautions (5.4) and Drug Interactions (7)].
Recommended Dosage and Administration
Insert one MILPROSA vaginal system starting on the day after oocyte retrieval. Leave in place continuously (for a minimum of 23 hours per day) for 7 days, then remove the used MILPROSA and insert a new MILPROSA. Replace MILPROSA weekly for up to 10 weeks.
Dosage Forms and Strengths
Vaginal system: 1.78 grams of progesterone in a white to off-white, flexible, non-biodegradable silicone ring (toroidal-shape). MILPROSA has a cross-sectional diameter of approximately 8.5 mm, and an outer and inner diameter of approximately 55 mm and 38 mm, respectively. Each MILPROSA releases an average of 11 mg/day of progesterone when placed in the vagina over a 7-day period.
Contraindications
MILPROSA is contraindicated in women with:
- Known sensitivity to progesterone or any of the ingredients of MILPROSA [see Description (11)]
- Undiagnosed...
