What is Megestrol?

Megestrol is a hormone treatment that stimulates the appetite for patients who are malnourished or who have lost a dangerous amount of weight due to illness (wasting syndrome). Megestrol is man-made progesterone, a female hormone. It is unclear how Megestrol stimulates appetite, but the weight gain is primarily due to increases in the body's fat stores rather than lean tissues, such as muscle.

Megestrol is also used to treat breast and endometrial cancer (cancer of the uterus's inner lining). Megestrol decreases the body's production of female hormones that certain cancers need to grow.

Megestrol is taken as an oral suspension. Megestrol stimulates appetite on the first or second day it's taken.

What are the side effects of Megestrol?

Common side effects of Megestrol include but are not limited to increased appetite, weight gain, stomach upset, diarrhea, gas, menstrual changes, lowered sex drive, decreased semen production, and impotence. Allergic reactions to Megestrol are rare but include hives, difficulty breathing, and swelling. Mental and mood changes include trouble sleeping.
