Uliprist Tablet 5 mg contains Ulipristal Acetate, a selective progesterone receptor modulator (SPRM) used primarily for the treatment of moderate to severe symptoms of uterine fibroids in adult women of reproductive age. Uterine fibroids are non-cancerous growths in the uterus that can cause symptoms such as heavy menstrual bleeding, pelvic pain, and pressure on surrounding organs.

Ulipristal Acetate works by regulating the effects of progesterone, a hormone that plays an important role in the growth of fibroids. By blocking progesterone receptors in fibroid tissue, Ulipristal helps reduce the size of fibroids and control excessive menstrual bleeding. This medication can improve quality of life by relieving symptoms and may reduce the need for surgical treatment in some patients.

Uliprist Tablet is usually prescribed under medical supervision and is used as part of a treatment plan for women who are either preparing for fibroid surgery or seeking non-surgical management of fibroid symptoms.

Composition

Each tablet contains:
Ulipristal Acetate – 5 mg

Indications

Uliprist Tablet 5 mg is indicated for:

• Treatment of moderate to severe symptoms of uterine fibroids in adult women of reproductive age

• Control of heavy menstrual bleeding associated with fibroids

• Reduction of fibroid size prior to surgical treatment

• Management of fibroid-related pelvic pain and pressure

Mechanism of Action

Ulipristal Acetate acts as a selective progesterone receptor modulator. It works by blocking the action of progesterone in uterine fibroid cells. Since progesterone stimulates fibroid growth, inhibiting its effect helps slow down fibroid development and promotes shrinkage of existing fibroids.

Additionally, Ulipristal Acetate helps control excessive bleeding by regulating the uterine lining. It reduces endometrial growth and stabilizes hormonal activity, which contributes to the reduction of heavy menstrual bleeding.
