The drug DIANE contains a combination of these active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs):
|
1
Cyproterone
UNII 4KM2BN5JHF - CYPROTERONE ACETATE
|
|
Cyproterone acetate acts as an antiandrogen by blocking androgen receptors. It also has progestogenic activity, which exerts a negative feedback effect on hypothalamic receptors, so leading to a reduction in gonadotrophin release, and hence to diminished production of testicular androgens. Sexual drive and potency are reduced and gonadal function is inhibited. |
|
2
17 alpha-Ethinylestradiol
UNII 423D2T571U - ETHINYL ESTRADIOL
|
|
Ethinylestradiol is chemically and biologically identical to endogenous human oestradiol. It substitutes for the loss of estrogen production in menopausal women, and alleviates menopausal symptoms. Estrogens prevent bone loss following menopause or ovariectomy. |
