BCPs and other medications
| Thu, 05-10-2007 - 8:06am |
Hi all,
I remember there was once a link posted on this board to a site that talked about what types of medications interfere with BCPs. Can anyone direct me to that link? I am starting to take Nicomide, it's a type of oral acne medication and I asked my doc and she said it wouldn't interfere with BCPs, but I just wanted to do a little side research as well.
Thanks!

My favorite has always been Eckerd's Drug Interaction Tool. It's easy to use, and lists OTC meds and some vitamins and herbals:

An article about BCPs at: http://obgyn.health.ivillage.com/contraception/birthcontrolpills8.cfm has a list of drugs and other things that interact with hormonal contraceptives
