How Long?
Sun, 04-04-2004 - 9:38pm
Hi,

I asked my pharmacist about this and I'm still confused. I use the nuva ring, I also take Singulair(asthma) and clarinex(allergies). I was recently treated for an ear infection with a z-pack ( take it for five days and it keeps working). I started the antibiotics two days after I inserted my new ring for the month. I know I have to use a back up but for how long? So do I have to wait till I insert my new ring? Or 7 days after that. Or is it o.k by my current ring out phase... or do I have to wait a whole addition month? Yup i'm confused

thanks!
