Description

Dretine is a contraceptive pill and is used to prevent pregnancy. Each of the 21 yellow tablets contains a small amount of two different female hormones, namely drospirenone and ethinylestradiol. The 7 white tablets contain no active substances and are also called placebo tablets. Contraceptive pills that contain two hormones are called “combination” pills.

Uses / Instructions

Take one tablet of Dretine 28 every day, if necessary with a small amount of water. You may take the tablets with or without food, but you should take the tablets every day around the same time.
