[Veralipride in the treatment of hot flushes in the menopause]. 1985

N Pasetto, and E Piccione, and L Baschieri

Thirty-six menopausal women and 18 women with surgically-induced menopause were treated with a daily oral dose of 100 mg of veralipride for a period of 20 days followed by 10 days without therapy. Following 2 or 3 treatment periods, the drug was effective in 27 women from the first group and in 13 women from the second group. Six women had to discontinue therapy because of adverse effects. There was no significant variation in FSH or LH serum levels.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007986 Luteinizing Hormone A major gonadotropin secreted by the adenohypophysis (PITUITARY GLAND, ANTERIOR). Luteinizing hormone regulates steroid production by the interstitial cells of the TESTIS and the OVARY. The preovulatory LUTEINIZING HORMONE surge in females induces OVULATION, and subsequent LUTEINIZATION of the follicle. LUTEINIZING HORMONE consists of two noncovalently linked subunits, alpha and beta. Within a species, the alpha subunit is common in the three pituitary glycoprotein hormones (TSH, LH and FSH), but the beta subunit is unique and confers its biological specificity.
