Brevinor is a combined contraceptive pill that’s used to prevent pregnancy. Each tablet contains a small amount of two hormones, a progestogen hormone called norethisterone and an oestrogen hormone called ethinylestradiol. The contraceptive pill will not protect you against sexually transmitted diseases (STIs); to prevent both pregnancy and STIs, it’s advised that you wear a condom.

 

Directions

Always take Brevinor exactly as described in the patient information leaflet or as your doctor or pharmacist has told you. Brevinor can be taken with or without food. Take the first tablet on your first day of bleeding. This is the day when your period starts. Take the tablet marked with the correct day of the week. You will be protected at once as long as you take a tablet every day. You can take the tablet at a time that suits you, but you must take it at about the same time every day. Take a tablet every day until you finish a blister strip.

 

If you cannot start the tablet on the first day of your period you may start to take it on any day up to the fifth day. However, if you do this, you may not be protected for the first seven days, so you should use another method of contraception such as a condom during those days. Once you have finished all 21 tablets, stop for seven days. You will probably bleed during some or all of these seven days. Afterwards, start the next blister strip. Do this whether or not you are still bleeding. You will always start the next blister strip on the same day of the week. You are protected during the seven day break, but only if you start the next blister strip on time. The first tablet in your blister strip is the worst pill of all to miss or take late.

 

It’s normal for your periods to become irregular and you may notice some bleeding between periods. Your periods may become lighter and you may occasionally have no bleeding during the tablet free days. Make a note of what happens so that you can tell your doctor or nurse at your next check-up.

 

If you forget to take a tablet, take it as soon as you remember and take the next one at your normal time. This may mean taking two tablets on the same day. If you are 12 or more hours late in taking one or more tablets, it may not work. As soon as you remember, take your last missed tablet and carry on taking them normally. However, you may not be protected for the next seven days, so either avoid sexual intercourse or use an extra contraceptive method, such as a condom. 

 

If you have fewer than seven tablets in your blister strip after you have missed taking a dose, you should complete the blister strip and start the next blister strip without a break. This will give you protection from when you took the last missed tablet. You may not have a period until the end of two blister strips, but this will not harm you. You may also have some bleeding on days when you take the tablets.
