SUSTEN VT 100MG TABLET

Your doctor may prescribe SUSTEN VT 100MG TABLET to help manage the following conditions: 

• Supporting early pregnancy in fertility treatments: SUSTEN VT 100MG TABLET helps prepare and maintain the lining of the womb, making it easier for a fertilised egg to attach and grow during assisted reproduction procedures.
• Preventing preterm birth: In women with a short cervix or a history of early deliveries, this vaginal treatment helps relax the uterine muscles to reduce the risk of giving birth too early.
• Treating absent menstrual periods: It helps restore a regular monthly cycle in women who have stopped menstruating due to a lack of natural hormones.
• Hormone Replacement Therapy: When used alongside estrogen, it protects the lining of the womb from overgrowing, lowering the risk of complications in postmenopausal women.

When used as directed as part of your treatment plan, this medicine may provide the following benefits:

• Targeted Local Support: SUSTEN VT 100MG TABLET provides targeted support directly where your body needs it most.
• High Uterine Delivery: Because the medicine is inserted vaginally, it delivers high concentrations of SUSTEN VT 100MG TABLET to the uterus (often called the first uterine pass effect).
• Effective Local Treatment: Although a small amount is also absorbed into the bloodstream, this route helps provide effective local treatment while keeping overall hormone levels relatively lower than with some oral forms, which may help reduce widespread side effects.
• Supports Early Pregnancy: For women undergoing fertility treatments, this medicine provides the necessary support to secure and nourish an early pregnancy.
• Helps Prevent Preterm Birth: For those at risk of early labour, it helps prolong the pregnancy, giving the baby vital time to develop.
• Restores Hormonal Balance: It also helps restore a healthy hormonal balance, bringing comfort and predictability back to irregular menstrual cycles and helping manage postmenopausal health safely.

• Follow your doctor's instructions on the dosage and timing of this medication.
• Check the label for directions before using SUSTEN VT 100MG TABLET.
• Gently insert the applicator into the vagina while lying down or standing with one leg raised. Push the plunger to release the medication.
• Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water.
• Ensure the vaginal area is clean and dry.
• Remove the applicator carefully and remain lying down for a few minutes to allow the medication to absorb.

• Eat fibre-rich foods: Hormonal treatments can sometimes slow down your digestion, which may lead to constipation. Incorporate plenty of whole grains, vegetables, and fruits into your meals to support healthy digestion.
• Stay well-hydrated: Drink plenty of water throughout the day to support circulation and digestive health, especially during early pregnancy.
• Wear breathable underwear: It is normal to experience some vaginal discharge or medication leakage. Wear loose, breathable cotton underwear and avoid synthetic fabrics to stay dry and prevent irritation.
• Avoid douching: Do not use vaginal douches or harsh soaps inside the vaginal area while using this medication, as this can wash away the medicine, cause irritation, or alter your natural vaginal pH.
• Engage in gentle exercise: If approved by your doctor, light activities like walking can improve circulation and help ease mild bloating or sluggish digestion.

• Inspect Before Use: Inspect the product before use. Do not use the vaginal gel, tablet, or insert if the wrapper is torn, punctured, or shows any signs of leaking or damage.
• Use the Provided Applicator: Always use the specific applicator provided in the packaging. Never share applicators with anyone else, and do not reuse disposable, single-use applicators.
• Avoid Other Vaginal Products: Avoid using other vaginal medications or products (such as anti-yeast creams, vaginal moisturisers, or spermicides) at the same time as SUSTEN VT 100MG TABLET, as they can interfere with how your body absorbs the hormone. If you must use another vaginal product, space them out or talk to your doctor or pharmacist first.
• Report Unusual Bleeding: If you experience any unexpected vaginal bleeding or spotting while using this medicine, notify your healthcare provider immediately to determine the cause.
• Wash Hands Before & After Use: Wash your hands thoroughly both before and after inserting the medicine to prevent introducing bacteria into the vaginal area.
