Ethinyl Estradiol + Lynestrenol (0.05 mg)

Generic Medicine
Indications

Lynestrenol and Ethinyl Estradiol is a combined contraceptive pill indicated as an oral contraceptive.

Dosage Administration

The first tablet of the first pack should be taken on the first day of menstruation. The same procedure should be followed when switching to another brand of oral contraceptive. One tablet must be taken at the same time every day without any break for 22 days. The remaining 6 days are tablet-free time. After the 6-day tablet-free period ends, tablet-taking from the next pack should begin.

Administration

If you are currently not taking any tablet:
Wait until the next menstruation begins. On the first day of menstruation, start taking the first tablet marked with the specific day from the top row of the pack. For example, if your period starts on Wednesday, take the tablet marked Wednesday from the top row of the pack. Following the same rule, take 1 tablet each day at the same time following the arrow marks until you finish all 22 tablets. Remember, if you start taking the tablet from the first day of your period and do not forget to take any tablet, you do not need to take any additional precautionary birth control measures.

If 5 days have already passed since your period started, then count the day of period onset as day 1 and start taking the first tablet from day 5. It does not matter if menstrual discharge has stopped within these 5 days. Follow the arrow marks and finish the entire pack of tablets (according to the rules described in point 1). In this case, for the first 14 days of tablet-taking, your partner must use an additional precautionary birth control method (e.g., condom).

If your period started more than 5 days ago, then you must wait until the next menstruation begins to start taking this tablet
