Depo-Provera, or birth control, is a birth control injection (the hormone that prevents ovulation) containing the active ingredient, medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA). This injectable drug is available in a range of dosages, including 0.1 mg/mL injection every 12-21 days, which is the most effective form of Depo-Provera.
Depo-Provera is available as a brand-name product for injection, injection site, or as a generic. Injection site is the site where the drug is injected into a patient’s uterus. The generic version is an injectable form of Depo-Provera. Depo-Provera is a highly effective form of birth control available in three different dosages, 0.1 mg/mL, 0.2 mg/mL, and 0.4 mg/mL, each of which can be given under the care of a healthcare provider.
Depo-Provera is a reversible contraceptive injection that contains a hormone (medroxyprogesterone acetate) and a medication (medroxyprogesterone acetate) that is taken orally (orally) in the form of a pill. Medroxyprogesterone acetate is a progestin hormone and is used to regulate menstrual cycles, reduce pain and other symptoms associated with menopause, and prevent the development of cancer.
Medroxyprogesterone acetate is a synthetic progestin hormone that prevents ovulation by making the ovaries more sensitive to estrogen and can help prevent pregnancy. This medicine is only effective when you take it every 12-21 days. If you take the injection site or use it for more than 21 days, you will not be protected from pregnancy.
The injection site is your preferred location for the injection.
When you inject medroxyprogesterone acetate into the uterus, your body releases estrogen hormones (progestin). Estrogen triggers the release of progestin, which then stops the ovaries from releasing an egg. If you inject medroxyprogesterone acetate into your body, it will release a progestin hormone that will stimulate the ovaries to produce more eggs.
Medroxyprogesterone acetate and progestin are both hormones that protect the ovaries from ovulation. Ingestion of medroxyprogesterone acetate increases the number of eggs released. This will increase the chance of getting pregnant.
Objective:To compare the efficacy and safety of the Depo-Provera injection for the treatment of postmenopausal women with osteoporosis and to compare the efficacy and safety of the Depo-Provera injection for the treatment of postmenopausal women with primary hyperparathyroidism.
Methods:The Canadian randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study was conducted on a random sample of 12 postmenopausal women (18 to 35 years old) with moderate to severe osteoporosis and primary hyperparathyroidism. The treatment was delivered by a local anesthetic injection by intramuscular injection. The women were given a daily oral contraceptive injection of medroxyprogesterone acetate 5 mg, 10 mg, 20 mg, or 40 mg. The patients were monitored closely throughout the study for signs and symptoms of osteoporosis and fractures. A vaginal ultrasound and other imaging parameters were monitored in order to evaluate bone mineral density.
Results:After the study was stopped, the average total and mean time to bone loss were 5.8 months (95% confidence interval [CI]: 3.3 to 7.9 months). No major adverse events were noted. The most common adverse events were headache, abdominal pain, diarrhea, nausea, and vomiting. A total of 6 of the 9 patients (43%) discontinued the study. The average number of doses required for bone loss was 2.5 (95% CI: 1.1 to 5.0). No major serious adverse events were noted. Overall, the study population did not demonstrate any statistically significant advantage for the Depo-Provera injection over other combined oral contraceptives. In conclusion, the Depo-Provera injection is well tolerated and is well tolerated in patients with moderate to severe osteoporosis and primary hyperparathyroidism.
Conclusion:The Depo-Provera injection is well tolerated and is well tolerated in patients with osteoporosis and primary hyperparathyroidism.
Depo-Provera (medroxyprogesterone acetate) injection for postmenopausal women with osteoporosis and primary hyperparathyroidismDetermination of the concentration of medroxyprogesterone acetate in plasma
The concentration of medroxyprogesterone acetate in plasma was determined using high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) in a Bruker C18 C18 column (1.5 µm i.d.). The mobile phase was a mixture of acetonitrile/isopropylethanol (20:70, v/v) pH 7.2 (solvent A), with mobile phase mixture consisting of 5 mM ammonium acetate (solvent B) and 0.1 M ammonium glycolate (solvent C) at a ratio of 1:1. The mobile phase was composed of isopropylethanol 0.1% and acetonitrile/isopropylethanol (solvent D) at a ratio of 1:1. The injection volume of medroxyprogesterone acetate in plasma was 2.1 μL, and the injection time was 8 min. The injection volume of the standard solution for plasma was 1.0 μL, and the injection time was 4 min. The injection volume for the standard solution for plasma was 1.0 μL, and the injection time was 10 min. The injection volume of medroxyprogesterone acetate in plasma was 1.0 μL, and the injection time was 10 min. The injection volume of the standard solution for plasma was 1.0 μL, and the injection time was 10 min. The injection volume of medroxyprogesterone acetate in plasma was 2.1 μL, and the injection time was 10 min.
