Climara Pro, a new COMBINATION estrogen and progestin patch for relieving menopausal symptoms

January 2004

Climara Pro, a new COMBINATION estrogen and progestin patch for relieving menopausal symptoms will be approved by Health Canada.

Climara Pro provides 0.045 mg/day estradiol and 0.015 mg/day levonorgestrel.

Climara Pro will be more convenient. It's applied just once a week...instead of twice a week like Estracomb or Estalis.
