It took the FDA, 14 years to put a warning label on Depo Provera injections
even when concerns were made years prior for this long-standing controversial
drug.
On November 18, 2004, (14 years have a New Zealand women's health group
posed these very same doubts) Pfizer Inc. sent health care professionals
a letter updating them about safety information regarding Depo Provera.
As a result of post-marketing studies, conducted separately with adults
and with adolescents, Pfizer has new clinical data regarding the use of
Depo-Provera Contraceptive Injection and its associated effect on bone
mineral density (BMD).
Pfizer data suggests that women who use Depo Provera Contraceptive Injection
may lose significant bone mineral density BMD. Bone loss is greater with
increasing duration of use and may not be completely reversible. It is
unknown if use during adolescence or early adulthood, will reduce peak
bone mass and increase the risks of hip and joint fractures in later life.
They also suggest that Depo-Provera Contraceptive Injection should be
used as a long-term birth control method -- longer than 2 years -- only
if other birth control methods are inadequate.
Depo Provera is still being marketed by Pfizer for women who are too
busy to deal with traditional birth control methods. Feel carefree today
but possibly crippled with loss of bone mineral density (BMD) tomorrow.
