Different Dosage Forms and specialty compounding
Transdermal Cream
Effective and easy to apply
Transdermal progesterone cream is absorbed through the skin into the fat layer, from which it diffuses into the capillaries permeating the fat, where it can be taken up in the blood as needed. It begins circulating in the blood within minutes of application.
Transdermal progesterone is effectively and quickly absorbed into the body. Although you can apply it anywhere, the recommended parts include locations like your inner thighs or inner arms; generally where the skin is the thinnest.
Lozenges/Troches
Quickly absorbed, indifferent flavours
Progesterone supplements can be prepared in the form of a lozenge/troche. This method involves placing the lozenge between the gum and cheek to dissolve. This allows the progesterone to enter the blood stream quickly and easily. This way, the progesterone is able to initially bypass destruction in the liver resulting in improved blood levels.
Our lozenges may be enhanced with natural sweeteners and pleasant tasting flavours to suit your taste buds.
Capsules
Convenient, with sustained release
We can also formulate progesterone supplements into capsules. Micronised (very small particles) progesterone is used to improve the hormone reaching the blood to exert its beneficial effects in the body. We can also formulate slow release capsules for more steady hormone levels and a longer response.
Suspensions
For patients who have difficulty swallowing tablets and capsules, compounding has an answer. Naturally sweetened, pleasant tasting oral solutions or suspensions can be administered easily and accurately.
