Norethindrone-d6 is the deuterium labeled Norethindrone. Norethindrone is a female progestin approved by FDA for the treatment of endometriosis, uterine bleeding caused by abnormal hormone levels, and secondary amenorrhea.

Stable heavy isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, and other elements have been incorporated into drug molecules, largely as tracers for quantitation during the drug development process. Deuteration has gained attention because of its potential to affect the pharmacokinetic and metabolic profiles of drugs^[1].
