Lenzetto Spray (1.53mg)
Lenzetto Spray is a hormone replacement therapy (HRT) used to relieve symptoms of the menopause such as hot flushes, night sweats, and vaginal dryness. It contains estradiol, a form of oestrogen identical to that produced naturally in the body. Applied as a fine spray to the skin, Lenzetto allows the hormone to be absorbed directly into the bloodstream, providing a steady dose without the need for tablets. It is prescribed to women whose natural oestrogen levels have declined due to menopause.

You should not take Lenzetto Spray at the same time as other hormone replacement therapies, like oestrogen patches, tablets, or creams, unless specifically instructed by your doctor. Combining Lenzetto with other oestrogen or progesterone therapies may increase your chances of side effects or complications. Discuss all medications and hormone therapies you are using with your doctor.
