What is Gynokadin Dosiergel (Estradiol) used for?

Gynokadin Dosiergel (Estradiol) is a topical medication used to treat symptoms caused by reduced estrogen levels in women going through menopause. It contains a form of estrogen that is absorbed into the body and boosts reduced estrogen levels to restore them to normal. This can reduce the appearance of symptoms such as hot flashes, headaches, muscle pain, or vaginal dryness. Your physician may prescribe this medicine to be used along with others or for the treatment of other unlisted conditions, as well.

How should I use Gynokadin Dosiergel (Estradiol)?

The normal dosage is 2.5g of medication applied to a broad area of skin such as the shoulders, but your individual directions will depend on your age, weight, current health, and the severity of your symptoms. To apply the medicine use the measuring device to collect the correct dosage, apply it to the application area, and gently massage it into the skin until the gel is absorbed. Thoroughly wash your hands using soap and water after each application to prevent the medication from contacting any areas not being treated or the mucous membranes. It is important to note that the highest recommended daily dosage is 5mg and should not be exceeded. Ask your physician any questions you have about using the medicine to ensure the correct administration.
