Covaryx
Covaryx (esterified estrogens and methyltestosterone) is a combination hormone replacement therapy (HRT) used to treat symptoms of menopause, such as hot flashes, night sweats, and vaginal dryness, in women who have not responded to estrogen alone. It combines esterified estrogens, which replace the estrogen that declines during menopause, and methyltestosterone, a synthetic androgen, to help manage severe menopausal symptoms.

Comprehensive Drug Guide
How Does Covaryx Work?
Covaryx works by providing esterified estrogens, which help to alleviate menopausal symptoms by replacing the body's natural estrogen. Methyltestosterone is added to improve energy, mood, and libido in women who experience a decline in these areas due to low androgen levels during menopause.
Common Dosages
- Covaryx tablets: 1.25 mg esterified estrogens and 2.5 mg methyltestosterone
- Covaryx HS (half-strength) tablets: 0.625 mg esterified estrogens and 1.25 mg methyltestosterone
Typical Dosing
- For menopausal symptoms: The typical starting dose is one tablet daily, either Covaryx or Covaryx HS, depending on the severity of symptoms and your healthcare provider’s recommendation.
Typical Dosing
FDA Approved Indications
- Moderate to severe vasomotor symptoms (e.g., hot flashes) associated with menopause in women who do not respond adequately to estrogen therapy alone.
Who Shouldn't Take Covaryx?
- nown hypersensitivity to esterified estrogens, methyltestosterone, or any component of the formulation.
- Undiagnosed abnormal genital bleeding.
- Breast cancer, endometrial cancer, or other estrogen-dependent cancers.
- Liver disease or severe heart disease.
Advice From The Pharmacist
- Take Covaryx as directed by your healthcare provider, usually once daily.
- Do not take Covaryx if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
- Regular monitoring of hormone levels, lipid profiles, and liver function may be necessary while taking Covaryx, particularly for long-term use.

Risks and Warnings of Covaryx
- Cardiovascular Risks: Estrogen and androgen therapy may increase the risk of heart attack, stroke, and blood clots, especially in women who smoke or have underlying cardiovascular risk factors.
- Cancer Risks: Long-term use of estrogens can increase the risk of breast and endometrial cancer. Adding methyltestosterone may slightly reduce this risk, but regular monitoring is important.
- Liver Toxicity: Methyltestosterone may cause liver toxicity, particularly with long-term use.
Interactions with Covaryx
Common Drug Interactions
- CYP3A4 inhibitors (e.g., erythromycin, ketoconazole) may increase methyltestosterone levels, leading to more pronounced side effects.
- Anticoagulants: Estrogens may reduce the effectiveness of blood thinners like warfarin.
- Thyroid medications: Estrogens can affect thyroid hormone levels and may require adjustments to thyroid medication dosages.
Alternatives to Covaryx

- Estradiol: A bioidentical form of estrogen often used in hormone replacement therapy for menopausal symptoms.
- Estratest: Another estrogen-androgen combination used to treat menopausal symptoms when estrogen alone is insufficient.
