Prasterone enanthate (also known as prasterone heptanoate, dehydroepiandrosterone enanthate, DHEA enanthate, DHEA-E, or androst-5-en-3β-ol-17-one 3β-heptanoate) is a synthetic, injected, long-lasting ester prodrug[1] of dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), a weak androgen and neurosteroid.[2][3][4] It is a component of Gynodian Depot, a combination formulation of 4 mg estradiol valerate and 200 mg prasterone enanthate in oil for depot intramuscular injection that is used in the treatment of menopausal symptoms and is marketed in Europe and South America.[5][6][7][8][9][10] Prasterone enanthate has an average duration of 18 days in this formulation.[1] The pharmacokinetics of the formulation have also been assessed in other studies.[1] The drug was patented, by Schering, in 1971.[3]
