Description
Indications
This combination hormone medication is utilized for the prevention of pregnancy. It comprises two hormones: a progestin and an estrogen. Beyond its primary contraceptive function, birth control pills may contribute to making your menstrual cycles more regular, reducing blood loss and discomfort during periods, lowering the risk of ovarian cysts, and treating acne.
Uses and Dosage
Take this medication orally as directed by your doctor, typically once daily. Choose a time of day that is convenient for you to remember, and strive to take the pill at the same time each day.
If you are using the chewable tablet, you can either swallow it whole or chew it thoroughly before swallowing. Adhere closely to the manufacturer’s instructions for your specific brand.
Consistency in taking this medication exactly as prescribed is crucial. Some birth control pills have varying amounts of estrogen and progestin in each active tablet at different times in the cycle. It is vital to follow the package instructions, starting with the first tablet in the pack and taking them in the correct order. Avoid skipping doses, as missing pills, starting a new pack late, or taking the pill at a different time than usual can increase the risk of pregnancy.
In case of vomiting or diarrhea, these may interfere with the effectiveness of your birth control pills. If you experience these symptoms, consider using a backup birth control method (such as condoms or spermicide). Refer to the Patient Information Leaflet for guidance, and consult your doctor or pharmacist for additional details.
Taking this medication after your evening meal or at bedtime may help if you experience stomach upset or nausea. You may also choose an alternative time that suits you better, but it is imperative to take the medication at the same time each day, 24 hours apart. If you have any questions, consult your doctor or pharmacist.
The pill pack consists of 21 active medication pills and may include 7 reminder pills with no medication. Take one active pill daily for 21 days consecutively. If your product has 28 tablets, take an inactive pill daily for 7 days after the last active pill unless otherwise directed by your doctor. If your product has 21 tablets, abstain from taking any tablets for 7 days unless otherwise directed by your doctor. Your period should occur during the fourth week. After taking the last inactive tablet or going 7 days without an active tablet, start a new pack the following day, regardless of whether you have your period. If you don’t get your period, consult your doctor.
For first-time users not transitioning from another form of hormonal birth control, take the first tablet in the pack on the first Sunday following the start of your menstrual period or on the first day of your period. If your period starts on a Sunday, begin taking the medication on that day. Use an additional form of non-hormonal birth control (such as condoms or spermicide) for the first 7 days of the first cycle to prevent pregnancy until the medication becomes effective. If you start on the first day of your period, no additional backup birth control is needed during the first week.
Consult your doctor or pharmacist for guidance on switching from other forms of hormonal birth control to this product. If any information is unclear, refer to the Patient Information Leaflet or consult your doctor or pharmacist.

- For individuals with diabetes, this medication may impact blood sugar levels. Regularly check your blood sugar as directed and share the results with your doctor. Inform your doctor immediately if you experience symptoms of high blood sugar, such as increased thirst or urination. Your doctor may need to adjust your diabetes medication, exercise program, or diet.
- Chewable tablets may contain sugar and/or aspartame. Exercise caution if you have diabetes, phenylketonuria (PKU), or any other condition that requires limiting/avoiding these substances in your diet.
- Notify your doctor if you have recently had or will be having surgery or if you will be confined to a bed or chair for an extended period (such as a long plane flight). These conditions increase the risk of blood clots, especially when using hormonal birth control. You may need to temporarily stop this medication or take special precautions.

- It may take a longer time to become pregnant after discontinuing birth control pills. Consult your doctor if you have concerns.
- This medication should not be used during pregnancy. If you become pregnant or suspect pregnancy, inform your doctor immediately. If you have just given birth or had a pregnancy loss/abortion after the first 3 months, discuss reliable forms of birth control with your doctor and determine when it is safe to start using birth control that contains estrogen.
