This medicine undergoes a process called micronization, which reduces the size of the natural progesterone particles and enhances their dissolution and absorption. As a result, Microgest SR 400 Tablet becomes more bioavailable and has fewer side effects.
What is Microgest SR 400 Tablet used to treat?
