How Viana Tablet works
Viana 35 Tablet is a combination of two hormonal medicines, cyproterone and ethinyl estradiol, which treat PCOS symptoms such as acne, excessive hair growth (hirsutism), and irregular periods. Cyproterone works by blocking the overproduction of androgens (male hormones) in the ovaries, thereby reducing unwanted hair growth and acne.
