What are Ortho Tri-Cyclen LO birth control pills?
Ortho Tri-Cyclen LO birth
control pills contain a combination of hormones
that is used to prevent ovulation (the release
of an egg from an ovary). The pills contain
a form of estrogen and a form of progesterone,
which are both hormones involved in conception.
Ortho Tri-Cyclen LO birth control pills
also have other effects that inhibit pregnancy.
They cause the cervical mucous to thicken,
which makes it harder for sperm to move
toward the uterus, and they prevent the
attachment of an egg to the uterus. Ortho
Tri-Cyclen LO birth control pills are used
to prevent pregnancy. Ortho Tri-Cyclen LO
birth control pills at times may also be
prescribed or used for reasons and purposes
other than those that have been listed here.
What should I discuss with
my healthcare provider before taking Ortho
Tri-Cyclen LO birth control pills?
Before taking Ortho Tri-Cyclen
LO birth control pills, tell your doctor
if you have high blood pressure, angina,
or heart disease; have had a stroke; have
a bleeding or blood-clotting disorder; have
breast, uterine, or another hormone-related
cancer; have liver disease or a history
of jaundice (yellowing of the skin and eyes)
caused by use of birth control in the past;
have undiagnosed, abnormal vaginal bleeding;
have migraines; have asthma; or have seizures
or epilepsy. You may not be able to take
Ortho Tri-Cyclen LO birth control pills,
or you may require a dosage adjustment or
special monitoring during treatment if you
have any of the conditions listed above.
Ortho Tri-Cyclen LO birth control pills
are in the FDA pregnancy category X. This

an unborn baby. Hormonal changes during
pregnancy can have very serious negative
effects on a developing baby. Do not take

might be pregnant. The hormones in Ortho

breast milk and may decrease milk production.

(Know Before you Buy Online)
What is the recommended way to take Ortho
Tri-Cyclen LO birth control pills?
Take Ortho Tri-Cyclen LO birth
control pills exactly as it has been prescribed
by your physician or health care provider.
If you do not fully understand the directions
that have been given to you, ask your pharmacist,
nurse, or doctor to explain them to you.
Take the first pill in a package on the
first Sunday after your period begins (unless
otherwise directed by your doctor). Take
one pill every day, no more than 24 hours
after your last dose. Try to take the pills
at a time that you will remember every day--for
example, just before bed, with a meal, or
first thing in the morning. Taking your
pill at night may help to reduce any nausea
or headache that you experience because
of the hormones. If you are on a 28-day
cycle, take one pill every day. When the
pack runs out, throw it away. Begin a new
pack the following day. The 28-day cycle
contains seven pills that are either placebos
(with no active ingredients) or iron supplements.
These are "reminder" pills to keep you on
your regular cycle. They are taken while
you are menstruating. If you are on a 21-day
cycle, take one pill every day for 21 days,
then do not take any pills for 7 days. You
should have your period during the 7 days
with no pills. Resume your pills on the
8th day with a new package. Follow your
doctor's instructions about using a second
form of birth control when you first start
taking Ortho Tri-Cyclen LO birth control
pills, when you are taking antibiotics,
or if you miss a pill. If you are unsure
what to do in any of these cases, talk to
your pharmacist, nurse, or doctor about
how to ensure that you will not become pregnant.
Store your Ortho Tri-Cyclen LO birth control
pills at or around room temperature and
keep away from moisture and heat.
(Know Before you Buy Online)
What you should know about the procedures
for a missed dose?
Missing a pill increases
the risk of becoming pregnant. Follow the
exact directions on your package information
insert concerning missed doses. If you do
not have a package information insert, call
your pharmacist, doctor, or nurse to find
out what to do. In general: If you miss
one dose, take it as soon as you remember
or take two pills at the time of your next
regularly scheduled dose. There is little
likelihood that ovulation will occur. You
may, however, want to use a second method
of birth control such as a condom or a spermicidal
cream, jelly, or foam for at least seven
consecutive days following the missed tablet
to ensure protection from pregnancy. If
you miss two tablets in a row, take the
two missed tablets as soon as you remember
or with your next regularly scheduled dose
(three total). Or, you may take two tablets
each for the next two regularly scheduled
doses (one missed tablet plus one regularly
scheduled tablet for 2 days in a row). Chances
are much greater that you may ovulate so
you must use another form of birth control
for at least 7 days following the missed
tablets. It is even better to use a second
method of birth control until your next
period. If you miss three tablets in a row,throw
away the package and start a new package
on the 7th day after the last day you took
a pill. Use another method of birth control
until you have taken a pill for 7 days in
a row. Your period should occur during the
7 days without pills. If it doesn't, have
a pregnancy test before beginning a new
package of pills. Read all of the information
in your package information insert. It may
have slightly different instructions in
the case of missed pills. Talk to your pharmacist,
nurse, or doctor if you have any questions.
What you should know about
the procedures for overdose?
Death is not likely to occur
from an overdose of Ortho Tri-Cyclen LO
birth control pills. Consult a doctor, an
emergency room, or a poison control center
for advice. Symptoms of an overdose include
nausea, vomiting, and menstrual bleeding
in females.
What substances should be
avoided when you take my Ortho Tri-Cyclen
LO birth control pills?
Avoid smoking. It greatly
increases your risk of a heart attack, stroke,
and blood clot formation. Ortho Tri-Cyclen
LO birth control pills do not protect you
from sexually transmitted diseases including
HIV or AIDS.
What side effects should you
know about before you buy or take my Ortho
Tri-Cyclen LO birth control pills?
If you experience any of
the following serious side effects, stop
taking the Ortho Tri-Cyclen LO birth control
pills and do immediately get emergency medical
care or contact your doctor immediately:
an allergic reaction (difficulty breathing;
closing of the throat; swelling of the lips,
tongue, or face; or hives); a blood clot

in the chest); a blood clot in an arm or
leg (pain, redness, swelling, or numbness
of an arm or leg); high blood pressure (severe
headache, flushing, blurred vision); or
liver damage (yellowing of the skin or eyes,
nausea, abdominal pain or discomfort, unusual
bleeding or bruising, severe fatigue). Other,
less serious but notable side effects may
also occur when using this medication. Continue
to take your Ortho Tri-Cyclen LO birth control
pills and talk to your doctor if you experience
headache or dizziness; nausea, vomiting,
or diarrhea; breakthrough bleeding; or breast
tenderness. These side effects may disappear
or be less noticeable after 3 to 6 months
of birth control use. Ask your doctor or
pharmacist for advice if you find any side
effect very bothersome. The side effects
listed below generally occur very rarely
and are not considered serious. If you experience
any of the following, talk to your doctor:
depression, changes in weight or appetite,
vaginal yeast infection, changes in menstrual
cycle, oily skin or acne, changes in sex
drive, lethargy or fatigue, bloating, changes
in skin color, or changes in blood sugar.
Side effects other than the ones that have
been listed on this page may also occur
for some people. Talk to your doctor about
any side effect that seems unusual or that
is especially bothersome.
What should I know about
drug interactions before I buy or take my
Ortho Tri-Cyclen LO birth control pills?

effectiveness of Ortho Tri-Cyclen LO birth
control pills which may result in pregnancy.
