Lizinna is an effective contraceptive pill. It contains two active ingredients, namely the synthetic hormones estrogen and progestogen. Although it is usually taken to prevent unwanted pregnancy, it is also prescribed for other problems, such as irregular periods. Lizinna contains the same active ingredients and has the same effect as Cilest. To explain, Cilest is another birth control pill that has been discontinued by its manufacturer, Janssen. If you used to take Cilest, you may switch to Lizinna via a follow-up prescription.
Each pill contains two active ingredients ethinylestradiol 35 micrograms and norgestimate 250 micrograms. These are synthetic female sex hormones. Through its active ingredients, Lizinna prevents you from getting pregnant by stopping the ovulation process. Also, it makes it more difficult for sperm to cross into your womb and for fertilized eggs to implant.
This contraceptive pill is generally used to prevent pregnancy. However, it is prescribed for other problems, too. For instance, it can improve your overall ovarian health and make your period regular. Also, it can reduce premenstrual symptoms and make it less painful.
Lizinna is available in packages of 63 and 126 tablets for £61.10 and £83.20 Pounds. Please note that Lizinna will not protect you against sexually transmitted infections. Use condoms to protect yourself and your partner against the risk of getting an infection.
Lizinna comes in a pack of 21 tablets. Take one pill, at the same time of the day, for 21 days. After that, have a seven-day break. To explain, during this break, you will get a withdrawal bleed that resembles your period. You will still be protected against pregnancy during this time. After the seven pill-free days, start a new pack of Lizinna, even if you are still bleeding. It's important to take the pill every day at the same time. To achieve this, try to set an alarm or take it at a specific time of the day, such as when you wake up or go to sleep.
