A fixed combination oral contraceptive containing norethisterone (a synthetic progestogen) and estrogen (usually ethinylestradiol or estradiol valerate), used in the management of menopausal symptoms, hormone replacement therapy, and as birth control. Still widely approved and in use for contraception and menopausal treatment.
Pharmacokinetics
Estimated pharmacokinetics for healthy adult women based on known profiles of combined norethisterone and estrogen products, in absence of published compartmental PK models for the fixed combination.
