Composition
-
Active Ingredient: Elagolix Sodium 150 mg
-

Indications
Golixen Tablet 150 mg is indicated for:
-
Management of moderate to severe pain associated with endometriosis
-
Reduction of endometriosis-related pelvic pain, dysmenorrhea, and non-menstrual pelvic pain

Mechanism of Action
Elagolix is a GnRH receptor antagonist that works by binding to GnRH receptors in the pituitary gland. This suppresses the secretion of luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), leading to decreased estrogen production by the ovaries. Lower estrogen levels help reduce endometrial tissue proliferation and associated pain, providing symptomatic relief for women with endometriosis.
