YAZ Birth Control 24 Day (active ingredient: drospirenone and ethinyl estradiol) is a prescription medication indicated for the following:

  1. Pregnancy Prevention: YAZ is used as a hormonal contraceptive to prevent pregnancy by suppressing ovulation, thickening cervical mucus, and altering the uterine lining to make it less suitable for implantation.
  2. Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD): It is indicated for the treatment of premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) in women who choose to use oral contraceptives as their method of contraception, helping to alleviate emotional and physical symptoms associated with PMDD.
  3. Moderate Acne: YAZ is also indicated for the treatment of moderate acne in women who desire contraception.

YAZ belongs to a class of drugs known as combined oral contraceptives (COCs), which work by combining synthetic estrogen (ethinyl estradiol) and progestin (drospirenone) to prevent ovulation and manage hormonal imbalances related to menstruation.

24 days YAZ Birth Control is available in tablet form to be taken orally as instructed by a doctor, with or without food, usually once a day. Select a convenient time of day to take the tablet and take it at the same time every day, 24 hours apart. Taking the tablet after the evening meal or at bedtime may help relieve nausea and stomach upset.

Take one active tablet at the same time every day for 24 consecutive days, followed by one white inactive tablet daily for 4 days. You can start taking the first active tablet on the first day of your menstrual period or on the first Sunday after your period starts. Take the pills at the same time every day to maintain peak effectiveness and use backup contraception for the first seven days to prevent pregnancy.

If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember, even if it means taking two tablets in one day. Use backup contraception for the next 7 days and contact your healthcare provider if you miss two or more tablets in a row.

Is Yaz Birth Control safe to use?

Yaz and other hormonal contraceptives are considered safe for use by most women. However, there are some risks associated with their use, especially if you smoke cigarettes, have a history of blood clots or stroke, or have certain medical conditions.

What should I do if I miss a pill?

If you miss an active Yaz pill, take it as soon as you remember and continue taking the pills at the same time every day, but also use a backup form of birth control (such as a condom) for at least seven days. If you miss two active pills in a row, take two pills as soon as you remember and two more the next day, and use a backup form of birth control for at least seven days.

What should I do if I experience side effects from taking YAZ?

If you experience side effects while taking YAZ, contact your healthcare provider. They may be able to suggest ways to manage the side effects or recommend alternative birth control methods.
