About this active substance
The combination of norelgestromin and ethinylestradiol is used as a hormonal contraceptive in the form of a transdermal patch. It works by inhibiting ovulation, altering cervical mucus, and thinning the endometrium.
The patch is applied to the skin, as directed by a doctor, usually once a week for three weeks, followed by one week without a patch. It is important for patients to follow the usage schedule to ensure contraceptive efficacy.
Patients should be aware of potential side effects, such as nausea, headaches, or irritation at the application site. It is important to inform the doctor of any unusual symptoms.
Common side effects include nausea, headaches, and irritation at the application site. In rare cases, severe reactions such as deep vein thrombosis or allergic reactions may occur. Patients should be informed of these risks before use.
