How effective are Relumina tablets 40 mg from Japan for uterine myoma (Relugolix)?
Relumina tablets contain relugolix, a gonadotropin-releasing hormone antagonist. They work by suppressing secretion of luteinizing hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone. By this, Relumina tablets reduce level of sex hormone such as estradiol and progesterone in the ovary. In average, the standard dosage of relugolix of 40 mg once per day suppresses estradiol levels to <20 pg/mL within 24 hours in premenopausal women.
Who should use Relumina tablets 40 mg from Japan?
Relumina tablets are effective for the treatment of uterine myoma (uterine fibroids) and such symptoms as menorrhagia, lower abdominal pain, low back pain and anemia. Clinical trials showed that relugolix combination achieved a 73.4% responder rate in the treatment of heavy menstrual bleeding associated with uterine fibroids compared with 18.9% in the placebo group. Also, relugolix demonstrated a statistically significant improvement in pain in 57.6% of women compared to 3.1% of women receiving placebo. Doctors particularly recommend the treatment with Relumina tablets for women with uterine fibroids who would refuse, postpone or are not candidates for surgery (F. Barra, M. Seca et al. Relugolix for the Treatment of Uterine Fibroids // Drugs of today (Barcelona, Spain). 2019, August, 55(8): 503-512).
