Apo-Megestrol 160mg Tablet 30s (Bottle)

Apo-Megestrol 160mg Tablet belongs to the progestin class of medications and contains megestrol acetate as its active ingredient, a synthetic hormone-related compound. It is used for specific medical conditions as prescribed by a doctor, including situations where appetite stimulation or hormonal effects are required. The medication is taken orally, usually once daily or in divided doses, and its effects may develop gradually over several weeks. Common side effects include nausea, diarrhoea, weight gain, and changes in menstrual bleeding patterns. With prolonged use, it may affect blood sugar control, blood clotting risk, and adrenal gland function, so regular medical monitoring is important.

The dose depends on the condition being treated and is determined by your doctor. Clinical treatment regimens commonly range from 160mg to 320mg daily, while higher doses may be used in certain closely monitored situations. Always follow your doctor's prescribed dosage and schedule.
