Nuvaring and taking Macrodantin for UTI
| Thu, 06-01-2006 - 11:43am |
I know some antibotics interfer with BC and this maybe a stupid question but, does that only mean Birth Control Pills or is the ring included in that. We haven't BD since I started since I have the UTI but, just curious if I should use back up.
Thanks

Hi kayleesmom2005, welcome!

The deal with the pill and antibiotics (and most of the other drugs we're warned about) is because the same enzyme that is used to metabolize the hormones in the liver is affected by th.ese other drugs.
