I'm back with yet another question - you ladies are great! Anyway, I was wondering if there is a website that has all the medications that may interact with birth control pills. I started Zyrtec and want to know if it interacts with my pills. So, is there anywhwere I can go to get a list of medications? I know I have seen lists in doctor's offices, so I figure there must be similar lists posted on the web somewhere. Thanks for any help.

Hi estakia,

Here are three locations. I have found the Eckerd drug advisor to be particularly helpful. Full disclosure: I have no financial or other interest in Eckerd Drug.
