Seasonale Use Indication:
SEASONALE®
has changed the way you take the Pill. Is it time to change to SEASONALE®?
Fewer periods. More possibilities.™
SEASONALE® tablets are indicated for the prevention of pregnancy.
Women who take SEASONALE® receive 9 more weeks of estrogen and progestin
every year than with a same-dose 28-day birth control pill. While this
may increase the chance of serious health risks, current studies have
not shown an increased risk.
Risks with SEASONALE® are similar to those with all birth control pills.
Most side effects are not serious and those that are occur infrequently.
The convenience of fewer planned menses (4 per year instead of 13 per
year) should be weighed against the inconvenience of increased
intermenstrual bleeding and/or spotting. Serious risks, which can be
life threatening, include blood clots, stroke, and heart attack.
Cigarette smoking increases the risk of serious side effects, especially
if you are over 35. Women who use Seasonale birth control pills should not smoke.
Some women should not use birth control pills, including women who have
blood clots, certain cancers, a history of heart attack or stroke, as
well as those who are or may be pregnant. If you are a heavy smoker and
over age 35, you should not take SEASONALE®. Seasonale birth control pills do not
protect against HIV infection (AIDS) and other sexually transmitted
diseases.
*With SEASONALE®, while you get the convenience of having only 4 periods
a year, you are also likely to have spotting and breakthrough bleeding
(which varies from slight spotting to a flow much like a regular period)
than with a 28-day pill. This is common and should decrease over time.
