Product Overview
Livial 2.5mg tibolone tablets 28S — a synthetic steroid hormone therapy for the relief of menopausal symptoms including hot flushes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, and mood changes in postmenopausal women.
Product Description
Livial 2.5 Mg Tab 28S contains tibolone 2.5mg, a synthetic steroid compound with combined oestrogenic, progestogenic, and weak androgenic activity, used in the management of menopausal symptoms in postmenopausal women. Tibolone is a tissue-selective compound that provides oestrogenic relief of menopausal symptoms such as hot flushes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, and mood disturbances, while the progestogenic and androgenic components help maintain bone mineral density and may contribute to improved libido and general wellbeing.
Unlike conventional combined hormone replacement therapy (HRT), tibolone does not typically require the addition of a separate progestogen in women with an intact uterus at the standard dose, simplifying the treatment regimen. Livial is indicated for menopausal women who are at least 12 months post their last natural menstrual period. The 28-tablet pack provides a one-month supply when taken as one tablet daily. Livial is a prescription-only hormone therapy and should be prescribed at the lowest effective dose for the shortest duration consistent with treatment goals, with regular review by a healthcare professional.
