Description

 

MEGESLIEVA 40 MG (Megestrol Acetate Oral Suspension USP 40 mg/mL) is a prescription medicine containing Megestrol Acetate 40 mg/mL, a synthetic progestin (progesterone derivative) used in the management of certain cancers and conditions associated with severe weight loss and loss of appetite. It belongs to the Hormonal Therapy class of medicines and is commonly prescribed under the supervision of an oncologist or other qualified healthcare professional.

Megestrol Acetate works by influencing hormone-sensitive tissues and helping regulate appetite. In oncology, it is used in selected hormone-responsive cancers, while it is also widely prescribed to stimulate appetite and promote weight gain in patients experiencing cancer-related cachexia or other chronic illnesses associated with significant weight loss.

MEGESLIEVA 40 MG Oral Suspension is commonly prescribed for the treatment of advanced breast cancer, advanced endometrial (uterine) cancer, cancer-related anorexia, cachexia (weight loss syndrome), and appetite loss in selected patients.

The oral suspension formulation is particularly suitable for patients who have difficulty swallowing tablets or capsules, providing convenient administration and accurate dose adjustment.

MEGESLIEVA 40 MG is commonly used for:

  • Advanced Breast Cancer
  • Advanced Endometrial Cancer
  • Cancer-Related Cachexia
  • Loss of Appetite (Anorexia)
  • Weight Loss Associated with Chronic Illness

  • Hormonal Therapy
  • Supportive Cancer Care

Manufactured according to stringent pharmaceutical quality standards, MEGESLIEVA 40 MG is designed to provide consistent quality, safety, and therapeutic effectiveness.
