What Is Estradiol 0.075mg Patches (Twice Weekly)?
Estradiol 0.075mg (Vivelle-Dot) is a small transdermal patch that delivers estradiol, a form of estrogen, through the skin. It is worn continuously and replaced twice weekly, typically every 3 to 4 days. Because the hormone is absorbed through the skin rather than the digestive system, patches provide steady estrogen levels and bypass first-pass liver metabolism. It is prescribed to relieve moderate to severe symptoms of menopause and, in appropriate patients, to help prevent postmenopausal bone loss.
