The Chinese Journal of Clinical Pharmacology. Archived from the original on 2021-05-25. Retrieved 2021-10-31. A radioimmunoassay (RIA), radioligand assay and equilibrium dialysis for determination of plasma and salivary megestrol acetate (MA) concentration, sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) capacity in plasma and percentage albumin bound MA were studied in healthy women receiving single im injection of estradiol-megestrol long-acting injectable contraceptive. The results showed that after injection the concentration of plasma MA increased rapidly. The meantime of peak plasma MA level was 3rd day, there was a linear relationship between log of plasma MA concentration and time (day) after administration in all subjects, elimination phase half-life t1/2β = 14.35 ± 9.1 days. The plasma SHBG capacity significantly increased at 7th, 14th day and decreased at 21st, 29th day after injection. The percentage albumin bound MA was 82.4%. There was no specific SHBG bound MA. There was a positive correlation between the MA concentrations in saliva and those in plasma.
