Description

What Is Premarin Used For 

Premarin is a conjugated estrogen, it is a mixture of estrogen hormones from a pregnant mare. It is used to reduce symptoms in postmenopausal women such as hot flashes and vaginal dryness due to less estrogen produced by the body. Premarin is a hormone replacement therapy that replaces the missing estrogen in the body during the menopause stage to relieve moderate to severe vasomotor symptoms and strengthen bones to prevent osteoporosis by replacing the diminishing estrogen in the bones; it can also help reduce pain in certain cancers. This medication is also prescribed in patients with hypogonadism, abnormal uterine bleeding, and primary ovarian failure. However, most clinical trials show that prolonged use of this medication can increase the risk of endometrial cancer (uterine cancer) in a woman with a uterus. Adding progestin while in estrogen medication can reduce this risk, ask your doctor for advice, diagnosis, or treatment available for this situation.

Premarin is available only as a brand making it more expensive than Estrace which has an affordable generic version.
