Suggest Alternate Over The Counter Medication For Premique

Posted on Thu, 2 Feb 2017

Question: Hi! I have a friend using Premique in the U.K.--prescribed. She has been unable to find a source for continued use and has been told that it is no longer available. I believe that the U.K. provider is Pfizer. She was having good results when using. Is this product still available in the U.K?

Thank you, XXXXXXX Glockling

Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX

Thank you for caring about your friend.

Premique is the brand name for the combination pill containing conjugated estrogens 0.3 mg and medroxyprogresterone 1.5 mg.

So, if she must need to take this med, then I'm sure her doctor would prescribe the same pill but under another brand name (e.g. Prempak C).

That is a prescription med and can't get without prescription.
