Ovranette is a combined oral contraceptive pill containing two hormones: ethinylestradiol and levonorgestrel. It works by preventing ovulation, thickening the cervical mucus to stop sperm reaching the egg, and thinning the lining of the uterus to make it difficult for a fertilized egg to implant. Ovranette is suitable for women looking for reliable contraception that is over 99% effective when taken correctly.
You should take one Ovranette pill at the same time every day for 21 days, followed by a 7-day break where you don't take any pills. Start the next pack after the break, even if your period hasn't finished. If you forget a pill, take it as soon as you remember, even if this means taking two pills in one day. If you vomit within 2 hours of taking a pill, it may not be fully absorbed, so take another pill. Ovranette does not protect you from sexually transmitted infections. If you experience severe abdominal pain, chest pain, or shortness of breath, seek medical help immediately.
