Additional Information for Norethindrone And Ethinyl Estradiol Tablets
Norethindrone and Ethinyl Estradiol Tablets are a combination of two hormones, norethindrone and ethinyl estradiol, which are used as a form of hormonal contraception. These tablets are commonly known as birth control pills or oral contraceptives.
Norethindrone is a synthetic form of progesterone, a hormone that helps regulate the menstrual cycle and prevent pregnancy. Ethinyl estradiol is a synthetic form of estrogen, another hormone that plays a role in the menstrual cycle.
When taken correctly, Norethindrone and Ethinyl Estradiol Tablets work by preventing the release of eggs from the ovaries (ovulation) and by thickening the cervical mucus, making it difficult for sperm to reach the uterus.
These tablets are typically taken once a day, at the same time each day, for a 28-day cycle. The first 21 tablets contain the active hormones, while the last 7 tablets are placebo pills or inactive tablets. During the week of placebo pills, a withdrawal bleed similar to a menstrual period may occur.
It is important to note that Norethindrone and Ethinyl Estradiol Tablets do not protect against sexually transmitted infections (STIs). They are solely intended for pregnancy prevention.
As for the supply class and group, Norethindrone and Ethinyl Estradiol Tablets fall under the supply class "Drugs And Biologicals" and the supply group "Medical, Dental, And Veterinary Equipment And Supplies."
