Daniel Braun: "Re: Hydroxyprogesterone" Reply: R. Daniel Braun: "Re: Hydroxyprogesterone" Glen Wedgewood Pharmacy at 800-331-8272 is one source. It used to be about $125 for a 10cc vial providing 10 doses. For what it is worth, we have been using alternate delivery forms for giving the progesterone Specifically. we have been using prometrium at 200mg po bid at 20 weeks till term and some are even using progesterone cream ie Prochieve 4% daily application. The studies on these two sources are not yet in but many question the validity of the 17 oh progesterone studies in terms of whether there is a true reduction in premature deliverines. I consider this the art of medicine. andrew >From: "Elrod, Darryl G Maj 48 MDOS/SGOBO" <Darryl.elrod@LAKENHEATH.AF.MIL> >Reply-To: ob-gyn-l@obgyn.net >To: Multiple recipients of list OB-GYN-L <ob-gyn-l@dns.obgyn.net> >Subject: Hydroxyprogesterone >Date: Wed, 25 Oct 2006 05:24:06 -0500 > >I know we have discussed the use of hydroxyprogesterone for the >prevention of preterm labor before.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
