Sayana Press 104mg/0.65ml Injection x1
Suspension for injection - white to off-white homogeneous suspension
Therapeutic indications
• SAYANA PRESS is indicated for long-term female contraception. Each subcutaneous injection prevents ovulation and provides contraception for at least 13 weeks (+/- 1 week). However, it should be taken into consideration that the return to fertility (ovulation) may be delayed for up to one year.
• Since loss of bone mineral density (BMD) may occur in females of all ages who use SAYANA PRESS long-term (see section 4.4), a risk/benefit assessment, which also takes into consideration the decrease in BMD that occurs during pregnancy and/or lactation, should be considered.
Use in Adolescents (12-18 years)
• In adolescents, use of SAYANA PRESS is only indicated when other contraceptive methods are considered unsuitable or unacceptable, due to unknown long-term effects of bone loss associated with SAYANA PRESS during the critical period of bone accretion.
• SAYANA PRESS has not been studied in women under the age of 18 years but data are available for intramuscular depot-medroxyprogesterone acetate (DMPA-IM) 150mg in this population.
