Description

Femodette is a combined oral contraceptive pill containing gestodene (a progestogen) and ethinylestradiol (an oestrogen). It prevents pregnancy by stopping ovulation, thickening cervical mucus to block sperm, and thinning the lining of the womb to reduce implantation.
Each pack contains 21 active tablets. When taken correctly, Femodette is over 99% effective at preventing pregnancy.

Directions for Use
  • Take one tablet daily at the same time each day.
  • Take tablets for 21 days, followed by a 7-day break with no tablets.
  • Start the next pack after 7 days, even if bleeding is still present.
  • A withdrawal bleed usually occurs during the pill-free break.

Starting Femodette:

  • Start on Day 1 of your period for immediate protection.
  • If starting later, use additional contraception for 7 days.

Missed tablet:

  • Less than 12 hours late: take as soon as remembered and continue as normal.
  • More than 12 hours late: take the last missed tablet immediately and use extra contraception for 7 days.
  • If multiple pills are missed, seek medical advice.

Vomiting or severe diarrhoea within 4 hours of taking a tablet may reduce protection — take another tablet and use extra contraception for 7 days.

After childbirth:

  • If not breastfeeding and fully mobile, start 21 days after delivery.
  • If breastfeeding, seek medical advice.

Common side effects:

  • Nausea or stomach pain
