Title: Why is Vagifem/Vagirux now 10mc?
Post by: Pixielilac on May 04, 2022, 08:24:22 AM

Reading posts about Vagirux/Vagifem and wondering why the tablets used to be 25mc but are now 10mc, if you use twice a week that’s only 20mc, I use 4 times a week, but just wondering if anyone knows why the dose was lowered?

I believe the higher dose was withdrawn for "commercial reasons". I take this to mean more of the lower dose would have to be purchased, thus increasing the manufacturer's profits, but perhaps I am too cynical.

I wouldn’t be surprised that’s why it was changed.
