Information About Yasmin
Yasmin is a prescription birth control pill that is used by women to prevent pregnancy. Yasmin differs from other prescription birth control pills because it contains a hormone called drospirenone. Yasmin, as with all other birth control pills, does not protect against the spread of HIV, the virus that causes AIDS, and other sexually transmitted illnesses.
How to Take Yasmin
Yasmin is a tablet that is to be taken once daily, at the same time each day. It comes in a packet containing 28 pills. There are 21 active pills, which are the tablets containing medication and 7 inactive pills which are nothing more than inactive ingredients. These 7 pills are called reminder pills and are to be taken at the same time of day as you normally take your pill. These pills are designed to “remind” you to take your medication at the same time each day. The reminder pills are different in color than the 21 active birth control pills. Yasmin can be taken two ways: you can begin a new pack of pills on the first day of your period or you can start on the Sunday following the beginning of your period. If you start the pills on the first day of your period you will not need to use a back up method of birth control. If you start a new pack on the Sunday after your period starts you will need to use a back up method of birth control if you have sex during the first 7 days of your packet.
Warnings and Precautions When Taking Yasmin
It is not advised to take Yasmin without first talking to your personal physician. Do not take Yasmin if you have had a stroke, heart attack, blood clot, hypertension, chest pain or heart disease. Other conditions in which you should avoid taking Yasmin are bleeding or clotting disorders, breast, uterine or other hormone related cancers or undiagnosed vaginal bleeding. Inform you personal physician before taking Yasmin if you have diabetes, high cholesterol, gallbladder disease, headaches, seizures, a history of depression or other mental disorder, irregular menstrual cycles, if you are a smoker or are on bed rest for any reason. Yasmin has been reported to cause severe birth defects so it should not be taken during pregnancy. It is categorized by the FDA as a pregnancy category X. Yasmin is secreted in breast milk and may decrease milk production in breastfeeding mothers. Do not smoke while taking Yasmin as this increases the risk of blood clots, heart attack and stroke.
Missing a dose
If you miss a dose of Yasmin you should take it as soon as you remember, even if it is almost time for the next pill. You can take two pills at the same time, or in the same day, if necessary. If you miss one dose of medication you do not need to use a back up form of birth control if you have sex. If you miss 2 pills in a row in the first or second week of your new pack you should double up pills for two days (take 2 pills one day and 2 pills the next day), then continue as normal with the remainder of the pack. It is possible to become pregnant if this happens so you should use a back up form of birth control for the next 7 days following the missed doses. If you miss 2 pills in a row in the third week of your pack you should discard the current pack of pills and begin a new pack the same day. If you begin your pack of pills on Sunday you should continue taking one pill daily until Sunday. Discard the pack and begin a new pack on Sunday. It is important to note that if this happens you may not have a period for this month. If you miss your period for 2 months you should schedule an appointment with your personal physician as you may be pregnant.

If any of these side effects are bothersome to you notify your personal physician.
