About Vivelle-Dot

Uses and Benefits of Vivelle-Dot

Vivelle-Dot (estradiol) is indicated for several important uses. It treats menopausal symptoms in women with a uterus, such as hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, and bone loss. It helps prevent osteoporosis in postmenopausal women.

Ingredients in Vivelle-Dot

The active ingredient is estradiol. The inactive ingredients include a translucent polyolefin film, acrylic and silicone adhesives, oleyl alcohol, NF, povidone, USP, dipropylene glycol, and a polyester release liner.

How to Use Vivelle-Dot?

Follow your doctor’s prescription exactly.

Vivelle-Dot (estradiol) is for skin use only. Change the patch twice a week or every 3 to 4 days. Apply the patch to a clean, dry area of your lower abdomen. Avoid areas with powder, oil, or lotion to ensure the patch sticks properly. Rotate application sites on your abdomen with each new patch. Do not use the same site twice in the same week.

Do not apply Vivelle-Dot to your breasts. If you forget to apply a patch, use a new one as soon as possible. Discuss your treatment and dosage regularly with your doctor, typically every 3 to 6 months, to ensure it is still necessary.

Who Should Not Use Vivelle-Dot?

Do not use Vivelle-Dot (estradiol) if you have unusual vaginal bleeding. Postmenopausal vaginal bleeding may indicate uterine cancer and should be checked by your doctor. Avoid using Vivelle-Dot if you currently have or have had certain cancers, such as breast or uterine cancer, as estrogens may increase cancer risk. Speak with your doctor if you have a history of cancer.

Do not use Vivelle-Dot if you have had a stroke, heart attack, blood clots, or liver problems. It is also not recommended if you have a bleeding disorder or an allergy to Vivelle-Dot or its ingredients. If you think you are pregnant, take a pregnancy test. Do not use Vivelle-Dot if the test confirms pregnancy. Consult your doctor immediately.

Safety Precautions

Before you use Vivelle-Dot (estradiol), tell your healthcare provider if you have unusual vaginal bleeding. Postmenopausal vaginal bleeding may signal uterine cancer and needs to be evaluated.

Also mention if you have high calcium levels in your blood.

Are you planning surgery or expecting to be on bed rest. Your doctor may advise stopping Vivelle-Dot temporarily. Are breastfeeding. The hormone in Vivelle-Dot can pass into breast milk.

Tell your healthcare provider about all medicines you take, including prescription and nonprescription drugs, vitamins, and herbal supplements, as they may interact with Vivelle-Dot.
