A randomized, multiple-dose parallel study to compare the pharmacokinetic parameters of synthetic conjugated estrogens, A, administered as oral tablet or vaginal cream.

Objective: A randomized, parallel-design study was conducted to determine the pharmacokinetic profile of synthetic conjugated estrogens A (SCE-A) vaginal cream (0.625 mg SCE-A/g) when administered at intervals (1 g once daily for 7 d, then twice weekly) over a 27-day period as compared with the pharmacokinetic profile of 0.3 mg SCE-A tablets administered once daily orally for 27 days.
