SAFETY
INFORMATION
Women who use oral contraceptives (OCs) should be strongly advised not to smoke
due to the increased risk of cardiovascular side effects. Serious risks reported
with the use of OCs include blood clots, stroke, and heart attacks. OCs are contraindicated
in women with thrombophlebitis, thromboembolic disorders, breast cancer, hepatic
or estrogen-dependent neoplasia, cerebrovascular or coronary artery disease, jaundice,
or undiagnosed genital bleeding. Risks associated with progestin-only OCs include
ectopic pregnancy and delayed follicular atresia. OCs do not protect against HIV
infection (AIDS) or other sexually transmitted diseases. |
