On July 9, 2002, the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute ("NHLBI"), an agency of the federal government and part of the National Institutes of Health ("NIH"), halted a major clinical trial of the risks and benefits of hormone replacement therapy involving estrogen and progestin — the combination of hormones found in Prempro — in healthy post menopausal women. The 16,600 patient study was abruptly halted after researchers found the risks of taking Prempro outweighed its benefits.
Prempro, which has been prescribed to over 6 million US women, is the leading estrogen-progestin combination hormone replacement therapy drug. Adverse affects linked to Prempro include an increase in strokes, heart attacks, breast cancer, and cardiovascular disease, and a doubling of rates of blood clots.
