Why This Information Matters

This Medicare Part D dataset provides transparency into the provider’s prescribing patterns, helping you understand the scope and nature of their pharmaceutical care. Here’s what you can learn:

  • Prescribing Trends: See which medications—both generic and brand-name—this provider has most frequently prescribed.
  • Specialization Insights: The types of drugs prescribed can give insight into the provider’s areas of focus or specialization, whether it’s managing chronic conditions, addressing acute illnesses, or providing preventive care.
  • Cost Awareness: Learn about the total drug costs associated with these prescriptions, which may help you anticipate your own costs and coverage needs.
  • Patient-Centered Decision Making: Understanding a provider’s prescribing practices helps you align their expertise with your health goals, ensuring the care you receive is consistent with your expectations.

What is this prescription?
The 17-beta-isomer of estradiol, an aromatized C18 steroid with hydroxyl group at 3-beta- and 17-beta-position. Estradiol-17-beta is the most potent form of mammalian estrogenic steroids.
What is this prescription used for?
This medication is a female hormone (estrogen). It is used by women to help reduce symptoms of menopause (such as hot flashes, vaginal dryness). These symptoms are caused by the body making less estrogen. If you are using this medication to treat symptoms only in and around the vagina, products applied directly inside the vagina should be considered before medications that are taken by mouth, absorbed through the skin, or injected. This medication may also be used by women who are not able to produce enough estrogen (for example, due to hypogonadism, primary ovarian failure). Certain estrogen products may also be used by women after menopause to prevent bone loss (osteoporosis). However, there are other medications (such as raloxifene, bisphosphonates including alendronate) that are also effective in preventing bone loss and may be safer. These medications should be considered for use before estrogen treatment.

This dataset provides information about prescriptions written for Medicare beneficiaries in the year 2022. It does not include prescriptions for patients with private insurance, Medicaid, or other coverage types. However, this information remains valuable for all patients, as it may reflect the provider's overall prescribing preferences and approach to pharmaceutical care. This can help you make better-informed decisions when considering or continuing care with this provider.
