Who Shouldn't Take Estrogel?

  • Active or history of thromboembolic disorders (blood clots)
  • Liver disease


Advice From The Pharmacist

  • Apply Estrogel only to clean, dry skin and allow it to dry completely before covering with clothing.
  • Avoid contact with the eyes and face. Do not wash the area for at least 1 hour after applying the gel.
  • If you miss a dose, apply it as soon as you remember. Do not double up doses.
