Marvelon 28 Day (active ingredient: desogestrel and ethinyl estradiol) is a prescription medication indicated for the following:

  1. Pregnancy Prevention: Marvelon 28 Day is used as a hormonal contraceptive to prevent pregnancy by inhibiting ovulation and altering the uterine lining to reduce the likelihood of implantation.
  2. Menstrual Cycle Regulation: It helps regulate menstrual cycles, reduce menstrual bleeding, and manage associated symptoms such as pain and premenstrual syndrome.

Marvelon 28 Day belongs to a class of drugs known as combined oral contraceptives (COCs), which work by combining synthetic forms of estrogen and progestin to provide effective contraceptive protection and stabilize menstrual cycles.

Marvelon 28 Day is taken for 28 days in a row, with one pill taken at around the same time each day. The first 21 pills contain both hormones, while the last seven pills contain no active ingredients and are called “reminder” pills. These reminder pills serve as a placebo and allow for the menstrual period to occur. Take the pills in the correct order, starting with the active pills and ending with the reminder pills. After finishing the last active pill, you should start the next pack of pills on the following day, even if you have not yet started menstruating.

Take Marvelon exactly as prescribed by your doctor. If you miss pills at any time the risk of becoming pregnant increases. If you miss one pill, take it as soon as you remember, and take the next pill at the usual time. This means that you might take 2 pills in one day.
