Norethisterone Tablets

Norethisterone 5mg tablets are a prescription medication commonly used to delay periods and manage various menstrual disorders. Each pack contains 30 tablets, manufactured by Wockhardt, and is suitable for oral use as directed by your healthcare professional.

Key Features:

  • Contains norethisterone, a synthetic progestogen
  • Effective for short-term period delay
  • Also used to treat heavy, painful, or irregular periods and endometriosis
  • Suitable for adult women, as prescribed by a doctor

How Does Norethisterone Work?

Norethisterone mimics the effects of the natural hormone progesterone. By maintaining higher levels of this hormone, it helps delay the shedding of the womb lining, effectively postponing menstruation until you stop taking the tablets.

How to Take Norethisterone:

  • Take one tablet (5mg) three times a day, starting three days before your period is due, or as advised by your doctor.
  • Continue taking the tablets for as long as you wish to delay your period, up to a maximum duration recommended by your healthcare provider.
  • Your period should start 2-3 days after stopping the tablets.

Possible Side Effects:

Common side effects may include:

  • Headache
  • Nausea
  • Breast tenderness
  • Changes in mood or libido

Seek medical advice if you experience signs of an allergic reaction, jaundice, or unusual vaginal bleeding.
