For qualified providers, Carie Boyd Pharmaceuticals offers implantable subcutaneous estradiol pellets (commonly referred to as estrogen pellets) for bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT). Estradiol is a type of estrogen, a hormone, that plays an important role in the female body. Often it is considered for menopause symptoms and support of bone health in menopausal women. Potential advantages of pellet usage include the infrequency of dosing, likelihood of compliance, and lack of transference. Estradiol Pellets are available in the following strengths: 6 mg, 10 mg, 12.5 mg, 15 mg, 18 mg, 20 mg, 22 mg, 25 mg, 50 mg.
Estradiol is a type of estrogen, a hormone, that plays an important role in the female body. Estradiol pellets are implanted during an office procedure. Absorption may occur through uniform erosion of the pellet’s surface in correspondence to the solubility of Estradiol in extracellular fluid. The release of the drug may continue over a period of 3 to 6 months. Implantable subcutaneous estradiol pellets have been studied for their support of women with menopausal symptoms.
Features:
- Route of administration: Implantable subcutaneous pellets may be preferred over creams/injections/oral formulations
- Mechanism: The release of estradiol from the pellet may support healthy levels in the body for 3 to 6 months
- Patients: May be considered by providers for menopause symptoms and support of bone health in women.
Potential Usage:
Typically administered every 3 to 6 months during an in-office procedure. Dosing is dependent on physician assessment, based on patient history and response to treatment. Individual results may vary. Every batch is tested for potency, sterility, and endotoxins. Pharmacist consultation is available for healthcare providers seeking additional information or guidance on use and formulation options.
