The formulations named in the records
A formulation decides the shape of a bill before any program sets a price. A pellet is a visit. A patch is a 28-day supply. A gel can be dispensed for ninety days and billed by the month.
Estradiol
7 formulationsEstradiol patch
Transdermal patch, changed twice weekly
A branded finished product applied to the skin. Four programs in the records price a patch, on cycles that run from a calendar month to a 12-week supply.
Read the recordEstradiol gel
Topical gel, measured by pump or sachet
A gel applied daily. No program in the current record set names a gel at the check date, so there is no priced record for it here.
Read the recordEstradiol spray
Transdermal spray
A spray applied to the forearm. It appears in program medication lists but has no priced record in this dataset yet.
Read the recordEstradiol tablet
Oral tablet
An oral tablet taken daily. Cheaper to dispense than a patch, and the record set is too thin to say how much that shows up in a program charge.
Read the recordEstradiol vaginal preparation
Vaginal tablet, cream or ring
A vaginal tablet, cream or ring. No program in the guide prices it separately at the check date, so it is bundled into a plan rather than shown as its own line. The record describes the route and the preparation and stops there: how a preparation is absorbed, and how it compares with an approved product, are clinical questions this guide does not answer.
Read the recordEstradiol pellet
Subcutaneous pellet, inserted in clinic
A pellet placed under the skin at a visit, releasing estradiol over roughly three months. It is the clearest case of a charge that is not monthly.
Read the recordCombined estradiol and progesterone plan
Two medicines, one plan
One membership billed for both medicines. The record carries estradiol as its medication class and lists progesterone as a product option.
Read the recordProgesterone
2 formulationsProgesterone capsule
Oral micronized capsule
Oral micronized progesterone, usually prescribed with estradiol where a uterus is present. Three programs in the guide list an oral capsule, and each bills it inside a plan that also carries estradiol rather than as a standalone subscription.
Read the recordProgesterone vaginal preparation
Vaginal capsule or gel
A local progesterone preparation. It appears in medication lists but has no priced record here.
Read the recordNot interchangeable
A compounded preparation is not an FDA-approved finished product and is not interchangeable with a branded one, even where the active ingredient is the same.
