Frequently asked questions about Norethindrone/Ethinyl Estradiol

What is Norethindrone/Ethinyl Estradiol used for?

Norethindrone/Ethinyl Estradiol is a combination oral contraceptive being studied for bioequivalence in healthy female volunteers. It is a small molecule product under development by Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Limited. Clinical trials have assessed the 0.4 mg/35 mcg chewable tablet formulation under fasting and non-fasted conditions.

Who makes Norethindrone/Ethinyl Estradiol?

Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Limited (NYSE: TEVA) is developing Norethindrone/Ethinyl Estradiol. The company has conducted Phase 1 clinical trials for this combination oral contraceptive product in the United States.

What phase is Norethindrone/Ethinyl Estradiol in?

Norethindrone/Ethinyl Estradiol is in Phase 1 clinical development. Two Phase 1 bioequivalence studies have been completed, each enrolling 36 healthy female participants aged 18 years and older. The drug is investigational and not yet approved.

What clinical trials is Norethindrone/Ethinyl Estradiol in?

Norethindrone/Ethinyl Estradiol has been studied in two completed Phase 1 trials: NCT01340625, a fasting-condition bioequivalence study, and NCT01344369, a non-fasted-condition study. Both were active-controlled, randomized trials conducted in the United States with 36 healthy female participants each.

Is Norethindrone/Ethinyl Estradiol the same as a chewable contraceptive tablet?

Norethindrone/Ethinyl Estradiol is being developed as a 0.4 mg/35 mcg chewable tablet. The clinical trials specifically evaluated the chewable formulation under fasting and non-fasted conditions to assess bioequivalence in healthy female volunteers.
