Description
Yasmin 30 is an oral contraceptive pill that contains a combination of two active ingredients: ethinylestradiol (30 mcg) and drospirenone (3 mg). This hormonal contraceptive is designed to prevent pregnancy and regulate menstrual cycles. Yasmin not only provides effective contraception but also offers benefits such as reduced menstrual cramps, lighter periods, and improved acne control. The unique formulation with drospirenone helps to minimize water retention and associated bloating, making it a popular choice among women seeking reliable birth control with additional benefits.
Dosage/Directions
Take one Yasmin 30 tablet daily at the same time for 21 consecutive days, followed by a 7-day break during which withdrawal bleeding typically occurs. Start the next pack after the 7-day break. Consult a healthcare provider for personalized dosing and to discuss any potential interactions with other medications.
Side Effects
Common side effects may include nausea, headaches, breast tenderness, and mood changes. Rare but serious side effects can involve blood clots, liver problems, and severe allergic reactions. Regular check-ups with a healthcare provider are recommended to monitor for potential complications.
