No. With other hormone contraceptives, the antibiotic can effect the efficacy of the contraception by interfering with the absorption of the hormone, however with the IUS, even if the antibiotic does interfere with the absorption- which is quite rare anyway,The IUS (device) is still in place in your womb which prevents you from getting pregnant- same as the copper coil. The progestogen hormone with the Mirena coil is also released directly into your womb. i got this from aregistered nurse on Yahoo answere
