Product Description
Medical Info
MEGAREX-160 is a prescription hormone therapy containing Megestrol Acetate (160 mg). As a synthetic progestin, it mimics the actions of the natural hormone progesterone. It is primarily indicated for the palliative management of advanced breast cancer and endometrial carcinoma, helping to suppress tumor growth in hormone-dependent malignancies. Additionally, due to its metabolic effects, it is frequently prescribed to treat significant appetite loss, severe weight loss, and muscle wasting (cachexia) in patients with advanced cancer or HIV/AIDS. This medication must be taken strictly under the guidance and monitoring of a qualified physician.
