A low-dose estrogen therapy
 
  • Evamist contains low dose 17ß-estradiol, an estrogen chemically synthesized from a plant source.1 This does not mean Evamist is safer or more effective than other hormone therapies.
 
Women found Evamist easy to use
 
In the same study, convenience was the #1 Evamist attribute women found important.†1 On a scale from 1 to 9, with 9 being very easy to use, Evamist was ranked 8.3 for ease of use.1 With advantages like these…it’s no wonder women feel Evamist is convenient:
  • Cannot be seen or felt after application1
  • No need to touch the medication when applying2
  • Low site irritation and no residue1
  • Dries in a median of 67 seconds1
  • Covers a small area of skin1,2
After applying Evamist, simply wait at least 2 minutes before dressing and at least 30 minutes before washing. Others should not make contact with the application area for at least 30 minutes after application.2
 
Furthermore, among women who had previously used an estrogen patch,
3 out of 4 reported that Evamist was more convenient than their previous patch therapy.‡1
 
 
Higher satisfaction compared to previous estrogen therapies
 
Surveyed patients were very satisfied with the relief they experienced with Evamist (92% of these patients used 1 or 2 sprays per day).§1 And they were more satisfied overall versus previously used estrogen therapies including patches, pills, lotions, and gels.||1

Important Safety Information
Evamist® is approved by the FDA for use after menopause to reduce moderate-to-severe hot flashes.

Estrogens increase the chance of getting cancer of the uterus (womb). Report any unusual vaginal bleeding right away while you are using Evamist. Vaginal bleeding after menopause may be a warning sign of cancer of the uterus. Your healthcare provider should check any unusual vaginal bleeding to find out the cause.

Do not use estrogens with or without progestins to prevent heart disease, heart attacks, strokes, or dementia. Using estrogens, with or without progestins, may increase your chance of getting heart attacks, strokes, breast cancer, and blood clots. Using estrogen, with or without progestins, may increase your risk of dementia, based on a study of women age 65 years or older. Evamist should not be used if you have unusual vaginal bleeding; currently have or have had certain cancers, including cancer of the breast or uterus; had a stroke or heart attack in the past year; currently have or have had blood clots; currently have or have had liver problems; or think you may be, or know that you are, pregnant.
