Is LYBREL® Right for You?
If you're thinking about taking LYBREL, knowing yourself is the first step. Here are some things to consider...
LYBREL may be right for you if you agree with any of the following:
- I am looking for a reliable form of birth control
- Not having my regular monthly period is appealing to me
- I am not currently trying to get pregnant
- I am considering changing my birth control
- I find it easy to take medication on a daily basis
- I can accept the possibility of unexpected bleeding or spotting when I start LYBREL
LYBREL would NOT be right for you if you agree with any of the following:
- I am currently or am trying to get pregnant
- I am currently breast-feeding
- I smoke cigarettes (cigarette smoking increases the risk of serious cardiovascular side effects, especially if you are over 35)
- I have blood clots; breast, uterine, or liver cancers; or a history of heart attack, stroke, or breast cancer (see the complete Patient Package Insert for details)
- I find it hard to take medication on a daily basis
- I want a monthly period
