Levlen, Description, Drugs.com:"Other commonly used names are Ethinylestradiol and Ethinyloestradiol Ethinyl estradiol ; Ethynodiol , Etynodiol , and Etynodiol acetate Ethynodiol diacetate ; and Norethindrone Norethisterone . Combination estrogen-progestin oral contraceptives are indicated for the prevention of pregnancy." ******************************************************
Tri-Levlen (28), Possible Side Effects, DrugStore.com:"SIDE EFFECTS, that may go away during treatment, include nausea, vomiting, bleeding between menstrual periods, breast tenderness, or weight change. If they continue or are bothersome, check with your doctor. CHECK WITH YOUR DOCTOR AS SOON AS POSSIBLE if you experience persistent or recurrent abnormal vaginal bleeding, a missed menstrual period, dizziness or fainting, swelling of fingers or ankles, headache, or difficulty wearing contact lenses. CONTACT YOUR DOCTOR IMMEDIATELY if you experience sharp or crushing chest pain, sudden shortness of breath, sudden severe headache or leg pain, yellow skin or eyes, changes in vision, numbness of an arm or leg, or severe stomach pain." ******************************************************
Tri-Levlen 28 Tablets, Clinical Pharmacology, Health and Age:"Combination oral contraceptives act by suppression of gonadotropins. Although the primary mechanism of this action is inhibition of ovulation, other alterations include changes in the cervical mucus (which increase the difficulty of sperm entry into the uterus) and the endometrium (which reduce the likelihood of implantation)." ******************************************************
Levlen, Most important fact about this drug, Health Square:"Cigarette smoking increases the risk of serious heart-related side effects (stroke, heart attack, blood clots, etc.) in women who use oral contraceptives. This risk increases with heavy smoking (15 or more cigarettes per day) and with age. There is an especially significant increase in heart disease risk in women over 35 years old who smoke and use oral contraceptives." ******************************************************
Levlen, General Information About Levlen, InHouseDrugStore.com:"Oral levonorgestrel with ethinyl estradiol is a combination of progestin and estrogen contraceptive agent. It is used for long-term birth control and regulation of monthly menstrual cycles. Levonorgestrel is the progestin component while ethinyl estradiol is the estrogen component." ******************************************************
Ethinyl Estradiol and Levonorgestrel, How does it work, iVillageHealth.com:"The ethinyl estradiol and levonorgestrel combination prevents pregnancy by preventing ovulation (egg release). It causes a variety of hormonal changes. To prevent pregnancy after intercourse, the medicine either prevents or delays ovulation (egg release)." ******************************************************
LEVLEN® ED(Levonorgestrel/ Ethinylestradiol Tablets), Actions, MedSafe.gov:"The contraceptive action of LEVLEN ED is based on the interaction between a number of factors the most important of which are the inhibition of ovulation, the inspissation of cervical mucus so as to constitute a barrier to sperm and the rendering of the endometrium unreceptive to implantation." ******************************************************
Levlen, Why is this drug prescribed, PDR.net:"Oral contraceptives (also known as "The Pill") are highly effective means of preventing pregnancy. Oral contraceptives consist of synthetic forms of two hormones produced naturally in the body: either progestin alone or estrogen and progestin. Estrogen and progestin regulate a woman's menstrual cycle, and the fluctuating levels of these hormones play an essential role in fertility." ******************************************************
Levonorgestrel and Ethinyl Estradiol, Clinical Pharmacology, Rxlist:"ECPs are not effective if the woman is pregnant; they act primarily by inhibiting ovulation. They may also act by altering tubal transport of sperm and/or ova (thereby inhibiting fertilization), and/or possibly altering the endometrium (thereby inhibiting implantation)." ****************************************************** ****************************************************** Nursing Topics, A to Z: A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, K L, M, N, O, P, R, S, T, U, V, W, X, Y, Z
