Understanding Compounded Sublingual Hormone Replacement Therapy

The usage of various hormones (estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, other) orally or sublingually is not new, and it is not novel. However, what is new is the ability to compound these hormones with SubMagna™ HMW, to enable delivery in a sublingual (under the tongue) dosage form that can also be swallowed. To learn more about this SubMagna™ HMW base, review the information found at www.submagna.com.

The challenge when a compounded hormone is delivered via a compounded capsule or a compounded troche is apparent – to change a patient’s dosage typically requires a new compounded version to be prepared.

By compounding with SubMagna™ HMW as the base, a patient can have his/her dosage changed without ever having to go back to the pharmacy to obtain a different strength. The volume of the dose taken can simply be increased or decreased, when necessary, as prescribed. This is fundamentally easier for the patient, for the prescriber and for the pharmacy.

SubMagna™ HMW has the capacity to handle substances with high molecular weights – even if in the cumulative by adding multiple drugs together. Similarly, it can reasonably handle the addition of Vitamin B or other items.

If you’re looking for a compounding base to deliver hormones that can be absorbed through the mucosal tissue in the oral cavity, or in the stomach, that enables a change in dosage without the necessity of making a new compound, look no further than SubMagna™ HMW.
