What are the Effects of Drospirenone and Ethinyl Estradiol Tablets?
Drospirenone and Ethinyl Estradiol Tablets are a short-term contraceptive drug that can be used not only for contraception but also for the treatment of menstrual disorders.
Drospirenone and Ethinyl Estradiol Tablets are short-acting contraceptives for women, mainly used for contraception and the treatment of menstrual disorders. They can also be used after artificial abortion surgery to constrict the endometrial blood vessels and reduce bleeding. Additionally, they can be used for the treatment of mild acne in women. When taken correctly, Drospirenone and Ethinyl Estradiol Tablets can affect the normal development of eggs and prevent the formation of fertilized eggs, thus achieving contraceptive effects. If a dose is missed, it should be taken within 12 hours to avoid reducing the contraceptive rate. To avoid missed doses, it is recommended to take the tablets at a fixed time every evening and not to take them with other medications to avoid reducing their effectiveness. If used to regulate menstruation, it should be taken for at least three months.
