Matibabu dalili:

Norgestimate and ethinyl estradiol tablets are indicated for use by females of reproductive potential to prevent pregnancy [see Clinical Studies (14)]. Do not prescribe norgestimate and ethinyl estradiol tablets to women who are known to have the following conditions: There is little or no increased risk of birth defects in women who inadvertently use COCs during early pregnancy. Epidemiologic studies and meta-analyses have not found an increased risk of genital or non-genital birth defects (including cardiac anomalies and limb reduction defects) following exposure to low dose COCs prior to conception or during early pregnancy. Do not administer COCs to induce withdrawal bleeding as a test for pregnancy. Do not use COCs during pregnancy to treat threatened or habitual abortion. Advise the nursing mother to use other forms of contraception, when possible, until she has weaned her child. COCs can reduce milk production in breastfeeding mothers. This is less likely to occur once breastfeeding is well-established
