Mestilbol (brand name MonomestroorMonomestrol), also known as diethylstilbestrol monomethyl ether, is a synthetic nonsteroidal estrogen of the stilbestrol group related to diethylstilbestrol.[1][2][3] It was developed by Wallace & Tiernan Company,[3] patented in 1940,[4] and introduced for medical use in the 1940s,[5] but is now no longer marketed. Mestilbol was available both as oral tablets and in oil for intramuscular injection.[3][6] The drug is gradually demethylated in the body into diethylstilbestrol and hence is a prodrug of diethylstilbestrol.[7] Mestilbol is a highly active estrogen,[6] although somewhat less so than diethylstilbestrol,[8] but is longer-lasting in comparison.[9]
