Detalii despre medicament

Descriere

NorLevo este o pilulă contraceptivă de urgență fabricată de HRA Pharma. Ajută la prevenirea sarcinii după un contact sexual neprotejat sau după un eșec al metodei contraceptive. Se administrează ca o tabletă cu doză unică, cât mai curând posibil, ideal în decurs de 12 ore și nu mai târziu de 72 de ore după eveniment.

NorLevo conține levonorgestrel, un hormon care acționează în principal prin întârzierea sau prevenirea ovulației și reducerea șansei de fertilizare. Cu cât este luat mai devreme, cu atât este mai eficient.

NorLevo este o opțiune de încredere pentru contracepția de urgență, dar nu ar trebui utilizat ca metodă contraceptivă regulată. Nu va funcționa dacă sunteți deja însărcinată. După administrarea NorLevo, este important să continuați să folosiți o formă regulată de contracepție pentru a rămâne protejată pe viitor.

Ingrediente

Levonorgestrel, a synthetic form of the hormone progesterone.

Efecte secundare

Nausea, headaches, fatigue, dizziness, abdominal pain, irregular bleeding, or spotting.

Avertismente

This medication can affect the menstrual cycle and should be used with caution in women with known hormonal disorders. Pregnant women should not use NorLevo.

Întrebări frecvente

How should I take NorLevo as soon as possible?

It is most effective when taken as soon as possible, ideally within 12 hours, but it can still be effective up to 72 hours (3 days) after unprotected intercourse.

Can I use NorLevo if I am breastfeeding?

Yes, you can. Small amounts pass into breast milk, but this is considered safe. You can continue breastfeeding as normal.

Will NorLevo affect my next period?

Your next period may come a few days earlier or later than expected. If it is more than 5 days late, or unusually light or heavy, take a pregnancy test.

Can I use NorLevo more than once during the same cycle?

It is not dangerous, but it is not recommended, as it may disrupt your menstrual cycle. If you need emergency contraception more than once, speak with your pharmacist or doctor to discuss a suitable regular contraceptive method.

Does NorLevo protect me for the rest of my cycle?

No, NorLevo only protects against the single episode of unprotected intercourse for which it was taken. It does not protect against further intercourse later in the same cycle, so it is recommended to use condoms or another reliable contraceptive method until your next period.
