How to Use Kurvelo
Simply take one pill at the same time each day. Many women find that taking oral contraceptives prior to bedtime or with the largest meal of the day helps reduce nausea and other adverse reactions.
After taking 84 days of active pills, you’ll switch to 7 inactive pills. These are inactive pills with no hormones that are there to help you get in the habit of taking your pill every day in order to achieve maximum contraceptive effectiveness.
If you do miss one active pill , take two pills as soon as you remember. Then, continue to take one active pill for the rest of the pill pack. If you miss two active pills in a row take two pills per day for two days.
However, if you miss three active pills in a row, do not take the missed pills. Instead you should use a back up birth control method for at least 7 days. Note that you may experience some bleeding or spotting if you miss three pills in a row.
Remember that Kurvelo cannot be used to prevent HIV infection or other sexually transmitted diseases. In order to prevent STDs, always use condoms when having sexual intercourse.
Kurvelo Dosage
Kurvelo birth control pills have two main active ingredients: Levonorgestrel 15 mg (progesterone) and Ethinyl Estradiol 30 mcg (estrogen).
Kurvelo Side Effects
While the risks associated with Kurvelo and other birth control pills are very low, some women experience side effects while taking them.
Minor adverse reactions include fluid retention, breast tenderness, headaches, nausea, and slightly elevated blood pressure or blood sugar levels. Positive side effects are also a possibility — reduced acne, lighter bleeds, and fewer mood swings are fairly common for combination oral contraceptive users.
More serious side effects include blood clots in the head causing double vision or stroke, blood clots in the chest causing severe shortness of breath, blood clots in the abdomen causing abdominal pain, or blood clots in the leg causing leg swelling and pain.
