In 2002,the Women's Health Initiative (WHI) prematurely stopped a study because researchers realized the severity of Prempro's side effects.
In March of 2003, the FDA approved a lower dose tablet of Prempro. The FDA recommends that women should only use the lowest dose possible for the shortest duration of time.
