I'm not familiar with Fematril but to be certain I would advise you speak to your Doctor about this.
I have also wondered this question and with the research that I have done, it says that neither affects the effectiveness of birth control pills
Yes, St John's Wort can decrease the effectiveness of birth control up to 50 percent
Antibiotics will completely eliminate the usefulness of a birth control pill. A secondary source, such as condoms, should be used while on antibiotics to continue the prevention of pregnancy. Usually the medical information on the birth control package states which medicines will interfere with the product.
Some herbs can decrease the effectiveness of the birth control pill. Contact your health care provider or pharmacist for advice specific to your situation.
X-rays do not lower the effectiveness of the birth control pill.
No, using two methods of birth control increases effectiveness or leaves effectiveness unchanged.
Birth control is used primarily as a contraceptive, to decrease periods, and to decrease PMS symptoms
Yes it may. I have recently read that obesity can affect the effectiveness of birth control.
There are no known drug interactions between fluoxetine (Prozac) and birth control.
There is no combination of birth control that cancels its effectiveness.
No.
I have heard that St. John's Wart can decrease the effectiveness of birth control as well as certain antibiotics, seizure medications, etc. on Planned Parenthood and other medical websites. If you really want to make sure you can take it without lowering the effectiveness of your birth control, I would suggest talking to your doctor. :)
