Best Answer

Given the nationwide shortages of Lo-Ovral, Low-Ogestrel, and other generics, it's hard to find an exact match. I've been changing patients to Junel 1.5/30. Talk to your health care provider about alternatives. Hopefully the shortage will be over soon - rumors say it'll be under control in October 2012.
