About this active substance
Ulipristal acetate is a medication primarily used for the treatment of uterine fibroids and as an emergency contraceptive. It is a selective progesterone receptor modulator (SPRM) that works by inhibiting the activity of progesterone, a hormone essential for fibroid growth and ovulation.
In the treatment of uterine fibroids, ulipristal is administered orally, usually in courses lasting several months, to reduce the size of fibroids and associated symptoms such as heavy bleeding and pelvic pain. As an emergency contraceptive, it is used to prevent pregnancy after unprotected sexual intercourse if taken within 120 hours.
Common side effects include headache, nausea, abdominal discomfort, and changes in the menstrual cycle. In rare cases, allergic reactions or liver function impairment may occur.
