Ethinyl Estradiol; Desogestrel (Mircette) Administration
NOTE: OCs containing 50 mcg estrogen should be used only when medically indicated. Examples of potential medical indications for products containing 50 mcg of estrogen include a history of known contraceptive failure on the 50 mcg products, or increased hepatic metabolism of OCs, such as occurs with some anticonvulsant medications.
NOTE: Some contraceptive packs contain 28 tablets. For most of these (exception: Mircette™), 21 tablets contain active hormone and 7 contain either iron or inert ingredients, so that the daily dosage cycle can be continuous. This reduces the chance of missed doses. The 7 extra tablets are taken at the end of the cycle.

Ethinyl Estradiol; Desogestrel (Mircette) tablets
What are ethinyl estradiol; desogestrel tablets?
ETHINYL ESTRADIOL/DESOGESTREL products are effective as oral contraceptives (birth control pills or “the pill"). These products combine natural or synthetic estrogens and progestins, similar to the natural sex hormones (estrogen and progesterone) produced in a woman’s body. Ethinyl estradiol is an estrogen and desogestrel is a progestin. These products can prevent ovulation and pregnancy. In general, a combination of estrogen and progestin works better than a single-ingredient product. Ethinyl estradiol/desogestrel tablets can also help regulate menstrual flow, treat acne or may be used for other hormone related problems in females. The type and amount of estrogen and/or progestin may be different from one product to another. For some formulations, a generic product is available.
