Actions of Lutoginestryl F in details

The action of the drug on the human body is called Pharmacodynamics in Medical terminology. To produce its effect and to change the pathological process that is happening the body and to reduce the symptom or cure the disease, the medicine has to function in a specific way. The changes it does to the body at cellular level gives the desired result of treating a disease. Drugs act by stimulating or inhibiting a receptor or an enzyme or a protein most of the times. Medications are produced in such a way that the ingredients target the specific site and bring about chemical changes in the body that can stop or reverse the chemical reaction which is causing the disease.

Endogenous estrogens are largely responsible for the development and maintenance of the female reproductive system and secondary sexual characteristics. Although circulating estrogens exist in a dynamic equilibrium of metabolic interconversions, Estradiol (Lutoginestryl F) is the principal intracellular human estrogen and is substantially more potent than its metabolites, estrone and estriol, at the receptor level.

The primary source of estrogen in normally cycling adult women is the ovarian follicle, which secretes 70 to 500 mcg of Estradiol (Lutoginestryl F) daily, depending on the phase of the menstrual cycle. After menopause, most endogenous estrogen is produced by conversion of androstenedione, secreted by the adrenal cortex, to estrone in the peripheral tissues. Thus, estrone and the sulfate conjugated form, estrone sulfate, are the most abundant circulating estrogens in postmenopausal women.

Estrogens act through binding to nuclear receptors in estrogen-responsive tissues. To date, two estrogen receptors have been identified. These vary in proportion from tissue to tissue.

Circulating estrogens modulate the pituitary secretion of the gonadotropins, luteinizing hormone (LH), and FSH, through a negative feedback mechanism. Estrogens act to reduce the elevated levels of these hormones seen in postmenopausal women.

Endogenous Progesterone (Lutoginestryl F) is secreted by the ovary, placenta, and adrenal gland. In the presence of adequate estrogen, Progesterone (Lutoginestryl F) transforms a proliferative endometrium into a secretory endometrium.

Progesterone (Lutoginestryl F) enhances cellular differentiation and generally opposes the actions of estrogens by decreasing estrogen receptor levels, increasing local metabolism of estrogens to less active metabolites, or inducing gene products that blunt cellular responses to estrogen. Progesterone (Lutoginestryl F) exerts its effects in target cells by binding to specific Progesterone (Lutoginestryl F) receptors that interact with Progesterone (Lutoginestryl F) response elements in target genes. Progesterone (Lutoginestryl F) receptors have been identified in the female reproductive tract, breast, pituitary, hypothalamus, and central nervous system.

Lutoginestryl F administration

Administration of drug is important to know because the drug absorption and action varies depending on the route and time of administration of the drug. A medicine is prescribed before meals or after meals or along with meals. The specific timing of the drug intake about food is to increase its absorption and thus its efficacy. Few work well when taken in empty stomach and few medications need to be taken 1 or 2 hrs after the meal. A drug can be in the form of a tablet, a capsule which is the oral route of administration and the same can be in IV form which is used in specific cases. Other forms of drug administration can be a suppository in anal route or an inhalation route.

Oral: Administer in the evening with food. In case of missed dose, administer with food as soon as possible, unless it is ≤2 hours until the next dose.

Lutoginestryl F pharmacology

Pharmacokinetics of a drug can be defined as what body does to the drug after it is taken. The therapeutic result of the medicine depends upon the Pharmacokinetics of the drug. It deals with the time taken for the drug to be absorbed, metabolized, the process and chemical reactions involved in metabolism and about the excretion of the drug. All these factors are essential to deciding on the efficacy of the drug. Based on these pharmacokinetic principles, the ingredients, the Pharmaceutical company decides dose and route of administration. The concentration of the drug at the site of action which is proportional to therapeutic result inside the body depends on various pharmacokinetic reactions that occur in the body.

Food Effect

Concomitant food ingestion increased the AUC and Cmax of the Progesterone (Lutoginestryl F) component of Lutoginestryl F relative to a fasting state when administered at a dose of 100 mg. In a study where Lutoginestryl F was administered to postmenopausal women at a dose of 1 mg Estradiol (Lutoginestryl F)/100 mg Progesterone (Lutoginestryl F) within 30 minutes of starting a high-fat meal, the Cmax and AUC of Progesterone (Lutoginestryl F) were 162% and 79% higher, respectively, relative to the fasting state. Concomitant food ingestion had no effect on the AUC of the Estradiol (Lutoginestryl F) component of Lutoginestryl F but decreased Cmax by approximately 54% and delayed Tmax to 12 hours.

Distribution

Estradiol (Lutoginestryl F)

The distribution of exogenous estrogens is similar to that of endogenous estrogens. Estrogens are widely distributed in the body and are generally found in higher concentrations in the sex hormone target organs. Estrogens circulating in the blood largely are bound to SHBG and albumin.

Progesterone (Lutoginestryl F)

Progesterone (Lutoginestryl F) is approximately 96% to 99% bound to serum proteins, primarily to serum albumin (50% to 54%) and transcortin (43% to 48%).

Elimination

Following repeat dosing with Lutoginestryl F (Lutoginestryl F (Lutoginestryl F)) capsules, 1 mg/100 mg, the half-life of Estradiol (Lutoginestryl F) was approximately 26 hours. The half-life of Progesterone (Lutoginestryl F), following repeat dosing was approximately 10 hours.

Metabolism

Estradiol (Lutoginestryl F)

Exogenous estrogens are metabolized in the same manner as endogenous estrogens. Circulating estrogens exist in a dynamic equilibrium of metabolic interconversions. These transformations take place mainly in the liver. Estradiol (Lutoginestryl F) is converted reversibly to estrone, and both can be converted to estriol, the major urinary metabolite. Estrogens also undergo enterohepatic recirculation via sulfate and glucuronide conjugation in the liver, biliary secretion of conjugates into the intestine, and hydrolysis in the gut followed by reabsorption. In postmenopausal women, a significant portion of the circulating estrogens exist as sulfate conjugates, especially estrone sulfate, which serves as a circulating reservoir for the formation of more active estrogens.

Progesterone (Lutoginestryl F)

Progesterone (Lutoginestryl F) is metabolized primarily by the liver largely to pregnanediols and pregnanolones. Pregnanediols and pregnanolones are conjugated in the liver to glucuronide and sulfate metabolites. Progesterone (Lutoginestryl F) metabolites, which are excreted in the bile, may be deconjugated and may be further metabolized in the intestine via reduction, dehydroxylation, and epimerization.

Excretion

Estradiol (Lutoginestryl F)

Estradiol (Lutoginestryl F), estrone, and estriol are excreted in the urine along with glucuronide and sulfate conjugates.

Progesterone (Lutoginestryl F)

The glucuronide and sulfate conjugates of pregnanediol and pregnanolone are excreted in the bile and urine. Progesterone (Lutoginestryl F) metabolites are eliminated mainly by the kidneys. Progesterone (Lutoginestryl F) metabolites which are excreted in the bile may undergo enterohepatic recycling or may be excreted in the feces.
