Yes, your contraceptive pill will be just as effective when taking ibuprofen. The only medecines which can cause contraceptive faliure with Microgynon 30 are: * Antibiotics (such as ampicillin and rifampicin) * Griseofulvin (Used to treat fungal infections) * Phenylbutazone (An anti-inflammatory drug used to treat some types of joint diseases) * Phenytoin, Primidon, Phenobarbiton and some other medicines used to treat people with epilepsy such as carbamezepine. Hope this helps. The leaflet inside your box of pills will also inform you and answer lots of other queries you might have.

Is it safe to take vicoden with lamictal?
(I am not a doctor) I have been taking 300mgs of Lamictal once a day for 10 years due to a seizure disorder and in that time I have been prescribed vicodin for a few dental issues. I noticed no adverse effects. It may be only subjective, but I did notice that it wasn't as effective as ibuprofen. So it is possible that Lamictal may reduce the effectiveness of vicodin. But as with any drug you are unsure about, always consider what other medications you are currently prescribed.

Where is the male contraceptive pill?
show me a pregnant man and I'll show you a male contraceptive pill] Okay the contraceptive pill prevents pregnancy so that answer is counter-productive. To answer your question the male contraceptive pill is currently under development. Apparently it has been quite successful in that 100% of test subjects showed a positive result. It works by lowering sperm count to zero as far as I know. It should be main stream in the next 3-5 years although with the recession it might be longer.

What is the most effective contraceptives?
Currently, surgical sterilization is the most effective. Both vasectomies and tubal ligations approach 100% in effectiveness. As far as less-permanent methods go, the "pill" (taken exactly as prescribed) is probably the most effective, followed very closely by the new injections and IUDs. It should go without saying but proper, careful and consistent use of ANY contraceptive method is the key to effectiveness.
