How it works

From the US prescribing label for the same active substance (Osphena). It describes the substance, not this exact product.

OSPHENA is an estrogen receptor agonist/antagonist with tissue selective effects.

Its biological actions are mediated through binding to estrogen receptors.

How the body breaks it down

In vitro experiments with human liver microsomes indicated that ospemifene primarily undergoes metabolism via CYP3A4, CYP2C9, and CYP2C19.

How it leaves the body

Following an oral administration of ospemifene, approximately 75% and 7% of the dose were excreted in feces and urine, respectively.

With food

After a single oral administration of OSPHENA 60 mg tablet in postmenopausal women with a high fat/high calorie (860 kcal) meal, C max was reached at approximately 2.5 hours (range: 1 to 6 hours) post-dose.
