Regumate is a light yellow oily solution for oral administration. Each ml of Regumate contains 2.2 mg altrenogest.

Regumate is for use in mares with significant follicular activity during the transitional period between seasonal anoestrus and in the breeding season (follicles of at least 20-25 mm present at the beginning of treatment): - Suppression/prevention of oestrus (usually after 1 to 3 days of treatment) during prolonged periods of oestrus. - Control of the time of initiation of oestrus (approximately 90% of mares show signs of oestrus within 5 days following the end of treatment) and synchronisation of ovulation (60% of mares ovulate between days 11 and 14 following the end of treatment). In order to ensure effective use of the product the transitional status of mares showing some follicular activity should first be established.
