Hi,
Deviry contains medroxyprogesterone acetate which is used to regulate periods, stops irregular bleeding and help with withdrawal bleeding in cases of amenorrhea. This medication should be taken the prescribing physician's advice. The physician will decide how much someone needs to take and for how much time. Usually the recommended dose is 10 mg twice daily for 5 days. Only 10 tablets are needed to take and period will start generally 2-7 days after taking the last tablet. Side effects of Deviry are nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, headache, weakness, dizziness, irregular menstrual cycle, nervousness, fever, fatigue, weight gain, hair fall, acne, allergic reactions etc.
Take care. Hope I have answered your questions. Let me know if I can assist you further.
