Yasmin Warnings? |
|
| |
Smoking while using Yasmin increases your risk of stroke, a heart attack, blood clots, high blood pressure, or other diseases of the heart and blood vessels. If you have to take antibiotics or anticonvulsants while on Yasmin, use a back up form of birth control until your next period. These medications cause birth control pills to be less effective in preventing pregnancy. If you wear contact lenses and feel that you are developing additional vision problems, talk to your eye doctor. It's possible to develop darker patches on the facial skin. This condition is worse when exposed to the sun, so limit your sun exposure and sunlamp time. Sexually transmitted diseases can still be passed while using birth control pills. If you suspect that you may be pregnant, you should immediately stop taking Yasmin and contact your doctor. If you are breast-feeding, talk to your doctor about using this medication. It is passed in breast milk. |

Yasmin Missed Dose? |
|
| |
If while taking Yasmin you forget to take a yellow pill, take the medication as soon as you remember. Your next dose should then be taken at its regularly scheduled time. You can take more than one pill in a day using this plan.
If you forgot two yellow pills during week one or week two, take both when you remember. You may also take three pills at your next scheduled dose, or take two pills each at your next two scheduled doses. You are more likely to ovulate, so you should take extra precautions and use another form of birth control for seven days.
If you forgot two yellow pills during the third week, or if you forgot three pills at any other time, you must throw away your current package of pills and start a new one right away if you are a Day 1 starter. If you are a Sunday starter, continue using the current package of pills until Sunday, then throw it away and start a new one. You should not have a period during this month, but take a home pregnancy test if you do not have one next month. You should then continue to use another form of birth control until you have taken seven pills. |
