What should I tell my healthcare provider before I use ESTRING?

•

have any unusual vaginal bleeding

 

Vaginal bleeding after menopause may be a warning sigh of cancer of the uterus (womb). Your healthcare provider should check any unusual vaginal bleeding to find out the cause.

•

have any other medical conditions

 

Your healthcare provider may need to check you more carefully if you have certain conditions, such as asthma (wheezing), epilepsy (seizures), diabetes, migraine, endometriosis, lupus, angioedema (swelling of face and tongue), or problems with your heart, liver, thyroid, kidneys, or have high calcium levels in your blood.

•

are going to have surgery or will be on bed rest

 

Your healthcare provider will let you know if you need to stop using ESTRING.

•

are breast feeding

 

The hormone in ESTRING can pass into your breast milk.

Tell your healthcare provider about all the medicines you take including prescription and nonprescription medicines, vitamins, and herbal supplements. Some medicines may affect how ESTRING works. ESTRING may also affect how your other medicines work.
